The Director Archaeological Survey of India,

Delhi, India.
Subject: Complaint against the Damaged Court of Taj Mahal, Agra
Respected Sir,
Preservation of the historical heritage is one of the key responsibilities of an alive nation and I am happy that you are executing your responsibilities without any delinquency. However, recently, I happened to visit the great Taj Mahal in Agra. It is a landmark of Mughal architecture and an emblem of true love but I felt ashamed of myself on looking at the worn and torn courts of it.
People from abroad visit this place for its grandeur and it is a matter of honor for us. Nevertheless, if the said negligence persists and the care of the national and cultural heritage is not taken then it will bring a bad name to our country. In addition to that, it will also cause serious damage to our tourism industry; therefore, being a responsible citizen, I request you to look into the matter and make urgent arrangements to renovate the affected areas.
It will be a great service to the country and its heritage.
I look forward to your prompt action.
Yours Truly

Sub: Poor condition historical monuments and heritage sites
Dear Sir:
I am writing to your esteemed self to express my concern over the flagrant damage being done to precious and invaluable historical monuments not only in Jaipur but throughout our country. Last week while visiting the Hawa Mahal, I found its court damaged badly.
What shocks the most is the negligence and apathy of the civic authorities to the maintenance and conservation of these monuments. These monuments are not only the invaluable symbols of our past civilization, but also a very rich source of earnings for the local as well as national economy. The benefits of these monuments support the lives of many local people. These historic buildings help create vibrant, cultural downtowns that engender tourism, art, festivals, and other activities which in turn draw investment, revenue, and economic growth. These historical buildings provide thousands of job opportunities for thousands of people. I know your good self must be aware of the consequences if foreign and local tourists stop visiting these ramshackle monuments!
The damaged parts of these buildings must be renovated and restored. Such provisions must be made as keep the tourists from physically coming very close to these monuments. There must be fencing around delicate parts of these buildings so that tourists can just watch them from a safe distance. Installation of CCTV cameras, putting guards on duty, cleanliness, and providing some facilities for the tourists also must be looked into. In the absence of proper washrooms, the immediate surroundings of these places have become very unhygienic. I appeal to your good self to look into the problem and do the needful. After all these historical monuments are symbols and treasures of our cultural heritage.
Yours truly,
Ajay Mittal
