Subject- Lack of education and opportunities amongst the children of Vasipur Village
Respected Sir,
Through the esteemed columns of your newspaper, I would like to grab the attention of the readers towards the declining condition of the underprivileged, poor children of the Vasipur village. I visited the village last week and saw children belonging to the age group of 5-14 years of age wasting their time and loitering in the streets.
Instead of studying and building ambitions for the future, these children are working in the agricultural fields or staying at homes. I would like to urge NGOs and social activists to encourage these children to go to school and study. I am willing to teach and make them aware of the benefits of education and the right to livelihood.
I appeal to the readers to take action and save the future of our country. Every child has the right to study and achieve their dreams. Kindly publish my letter in your esteemed newspaper and encourage others to join in this noble cause.
Thanking you
Yours Faithfully
Navtej/ Navita
