Respected Sir/Ma'am,
Subject: Random cutting of trees in the locality.
Through your pompous daily, I want to draw your essential attention to the unauthorized cutting of trees in our society. Moreover, the people of our society have witnessed a great number of decrease in the number of trees that were flourishing in our area. This has become a great cause of worry for the whole society. This is going on for the last three weeks. Later, we formed a group to research the number of trees that were missing. The fact-sheet showed that seventeen well-grown trees were devastated. There are more than ninety trees still in society and we are being careful so that they can be saved.
However, this is a big problem and I would like your help in featuring this inappropriate destruction of the fauna. It can prove to be a great attempt in further deforestation that is not authorized. I hope you will help us in fighting this condition that is disturbing the ecological balance of nature.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
Arun Jagdish Singh

Sub- Addressing the mass cutting of trees in R.K. Nagar.
Respected Sir,
I am a resident of R.K Nagar and I've recently noticed that a large number of trees are being cut in our locality. I would like to address this issue in the reputed columns of your newspaper.
Trees are considered to be one of the most important parts of our ecosystem. Yet, the authorities of R.K. Nagar do not seem heed to this and are engaging in cutting down a huge number of trees. Over the last week, about 12 trees have been cut.
It is important to note that a wide majority of the trees in R.K. Nagar, are at least 100 years old and they provide much-needed shade, fresh air and noise cancellation amidst the busy city. They are also home to several species of birds, animals and insects. Cutting down these massive trees risks the balance of our environment and poses danger to many.
It is also to be brought to public attention that, no safety measures are followed when the trees are cut down. These trees are located in a highly-populated area and not following safety measures may lead to severe casualties.
I request the concerned authorities to look into this matter and put a solution in place.
Yours sincerely
