You have just read an article in a national newspaper which claims that town centres in your country all look very similar to each other. You don't fully agree with this option. Write a letter to the editorof the newspaper. In your letter - Say which points in the article you agree with - explain ways in which your town centre is different from most other town centres - offer to give a guided tour of your town to the writer of the article

Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing with regard to the article published in your newspaper a few days back claiming that Telangana and Andhra Pradesh towns look very similar to each other. I believe that these two towns do not look similar at all and they are very different compared to each other. I am a resident of Telangana
town
and I have been living here since my childhood. First of all, I really appreciate you for exploring my
town
. I agree with a few points explained in the article about my
town
. I agree that my
town
is very well developed and
also
it encourages immigrants from around the country to move and live here.
However
, I don't agree that my
town
looks similar to Andhra Pradesh
town
.
Firstly
, infrastructure is very different compared to most other urban centres in the country. There are a lot of high-rise buildings in my
town
which cannot be seen in most of the cities.
Furthermore
, I feel confident in saying that one cannot find air-conditioned vegetable and seafood markets in any other city.
Therefore
, I would request you to publish a new article explaining how different my
town
is compared to other cities in the country. I would be happy to offer a guided tour of my
town
to help you understand the culture and
also
we can meet a few people to know their experiences living in the city. I hope that you will take my suggestions into consideration, and please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss
further
. Yours faithfully, Sahithi
