Subject: Dangers of using headphones.

Sir,

I am writing to you as I think your newspaper should publish an article on the Danger of using headphones while on Roads and Railway Tracks.

My views on this issue are simple, I think any kind of distraction to your mind is not healthy when you are at someplace that needs your 100% attention. Headphones are such an instrument that is totally connected to someone's power of awareness because the sound produced by them are in really close contact with the ears where our body balance is focused, therefore when we hear music the mind gets relaxed and we are not able to react accordingly at the time of trouble which ultimately leads to accidents. Therefore, people should be aware of the dangers on the roads and railway tracks which need our full attention, thus stop using headphones or even mobiles when on-road walking or driving and also when on railway tracks.

Kindly, consider this topic and write a column creating awareness on the above topic.

Thank you,

Himani
