Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing
this
letter to inform you that the article published in your popular international travel magazine a couple of weeks ago, 150th edition, has some factual error about my hometown, Amritsar and it requires the immediate correction. In fact, the article in your magazine says that the War

is closed on Sunday while the correct information is that it is closed on Monday and it is imperative to provide the correct information to the tourist visiting the city. By the way, correcting the particular day off in your magazine is very important for the livelihood of the people of my hometown because they heavily rely on the tourist who came to visit the same on Sundays. I would like you to kindly publish the right information in your
next
edition with the correction notice about the previous mistake so that the travellers should not get confused about the day off of the museum. Thank you for your time and consideration. Yours faithfully, Ankita Sharma
