The local council has decided to build a block of flats on the park opposite the place where you are living Write a letter to the editor of the local newspaper: - Where did you hear this news and your opinion? - The reason why you protest it - Make suggestions for what people can or should do to stop the development

Dear Sir/Madam, I am writing
this
letter to request you to publish an article in your newspaper related to the changes that are going to be made in the near future by the local council. They are planning to construct a residential building in the area of the
park
which is located exactly beside my colony. Committee members of my society heard
this
news
as well as
they saw some workers that were measuring the area of the
park
and talked that the ground of the
park
is very powerful and it is suitable to hold a five to seven-storey building. In my perspective,
this
is the only open space for people who are living in the south of
this
town.
This
park
is not only helpful for elders but
also
beneficial for children where they play numerous games.
Therefore
, me and other members of
this
colony protest it and we want that the council should withdraw
this
plan. So that, we can save the only open space of our
that is
actually made for public use.
Moreover
, if the council will not drop
this
process
then
, people will go to the chairman of the State and if needed they will
also
spread
this
news all over the world through the Internet. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours Sincerely, Harpreet Kaur.
