Dear Sir
I am very pleased to read the news that recently the State Government of Rajasthan has banned plastic bag manufacturing, storing distributing. Along with it, whoever is indulged in this, he/ she will be penalized for ₹ 30,000 & 6 months of imprisonment. It will be very helpful in keeping environment clean. The biggest problem with the plastic bags which are used for packing of milk, oil, salt etc is that they become big environmental problem.
The second problem is that when plastic bags are thrown outside, plastic chokes the drainages, when burnt plastic emits poisonous gases.
Thus, the ban on plastic will be helpful for our environment in many ways.

Dear Sir
I have been reading so much in the newspapers about keeping Jaipur clean, but I have just one question to ask. Where are the dustbins? A busy place, like Sindhi Camp bus stand has no proper dustbins. So the travellers throw all the rubbish i.e. paperbags, polybags, leftovers etc. on the bus stand resulting in an untidy look. There are no dustbins on the roads. It is time for the Jaipur authorities to do something in this matter. Places where the dustbins are absolutely necessary are bus stands, hotels and wayside stalls.
We should be practical and realistic when we talk about a clean Jaipur.
Yours faithfully

I wish to draw your kind attention to the negligence of the contractor’s man, Gopi. I pay bicycle parking fee regularly. The concerned man is not careful. Due to his negligence, the bell and the seat cover of my bicycle were stolen on July 25. I belong to a poor family. So I cannot bear the loss.
I, therefore, request you to kindly look into the matter and order the man to pay me compensation for the loss. I shall be thankful to you.
