Subject: Need to Inculcate Civic Sense Among Students
Sir/Madam,
Through your esteemed newspaper, I would like to highlight the issue of students littering public places like parks. It is disturbing to see bottles and cans thrown around after school picnics. Schools and parents must work together to develop civic responsibility. Students should be involved in community projects and taught civic behaviour through daily practice. Teachers must emphasize civic duty and set an example. Awareness drives and reward-based cleanliness campaigns may also help. Let's act now to raise responsible citizens. \hfill Yours sincerely,
\hfill Kirti / Keshav
