My dear Father,

I hope this letter finds you and everyone at home in good health. I am doing well in my studies here.

Our college has arranged an educational tour to historical places in Rajasthan for five days during the upcoming autumn break. It will be a great opportunity to learn about our country's history and architecture. All my friends are going, and I am very eager to join them.

The total cost for the tour is Rupees 1,000. I request you to please send me this amount. The college also requires a signed permission letter from parents for students who wish to participate. Kindly send me a letter granting me permission to go on this tour.

Give my regards to Mother and love to Chotu.

Yours lovingly,
[Your Name]
