Dear sir
Sub: complaint against defective items
With reference to our order no. 54/3 dated 2nd march 2007 for the supply of furnishings and upholstery
our newly constructed restaurant, we note with regret that the goods delivered don’t correspond with
samples sent earlier.
In fact, your samples have been most misleading. The quality of the fabric is much poorer than the one
submitted in the samples. The color scheme of the curtains is also not same as specified. It seems
goods not orders have been sent by mistake. Inspite of the fact that an early delivery was guaranteed,
the goods were delivered after a delay of ten days.
We wait your explanations in this regard and expect that the faulty goods will be replaced at the
earliest as per the terms of the order.

Dear Sir,
Sub: Need for Kendriya Bhandar in the colony.
Through the esteemed columns of your paper, I would like to draw your kind attention to the unfortunate
fact that our colony is without a Kendriya Bhandar.
You cannot imagine the plight of the innocent citizens who are the victims of ruthless bureaucracy.The
rich are getting richer and have no qualms in spending fortunes on essential commodities. The visit
fancy modern markets and pleased with the array of goods on display, choose what they like.The
poverty stricken masses cannot even get two square meals a day.
The authorities themselves turn a deaf ear and are mute witnesses to the sorry state of affairs in out
cities. There is rampant corruption at every step even when we have Kendirya Bhandars, the people are
not benefited.
You are requested to open a new Kendriya Bhandar and hope that it will serve its purpose.
