Dear Mr. Garg, I am writing this to seek your permission to allow me to attend a conference on the subject of AI in Communication, which is going to be held on 5th December 2023 at the University conference hall. The idea of the event is to make people understand about the future aspect of robots in the field of efficient marketing and communication. Additionally, the speaker is Mr Park, who has been working in the field of technology for the last 10 years. Too many banners and advertisement around the city are promoting the event. As far as I am concerned I came to know about this from a local advertisement. To get a booking I called an organisation and he advised me to book space in advance. As our company has recently started taking a serious move for digital marketing, I thought this type of event would be helpful for me to understand what type of changes have been occurring in marketing. That will be helpful for me to develop new strategies. I would request you to allow me to be a participant in the conference and oblige that. Yours faithfully, Jaimini Patel.You recently saw an advertisement about a business conference that can be helpful for your work. Write a letter to your manager asking permission to attend the conference. - What is the conference about? - How did you know about the conference? - Explain to him/her why it is important that you attend this conference. You should write at least 150 words. You do NOT need to write any address. Begin your letter as follows: Dear ......,
I am writing this to seek your permission to allow me to attend a conference on the subject of AI in Communication, which is going to be held on 5th December 2023 at the University conference hall.

There is an ongoing debate about whether the government should prioritize educational funding or invest more heavily in recreational activities for young people.
