Sir,
This is just to bring to your kind notice that the ration distributor, incharge of fair-price shop No. 455, in Dharavi, Mumbai, usually opens his shop very late. In the morning, he reaches his shop at 11 a.m. and sometimes even later, and in the evening he closes the shop much earlier than the scheduled time of 5 p.m.
It is widely felt that he is in the habit of mixing up pebbles and dirt in sugar and wheat also. If someone dares point out such a foul, he starts rebuking him and asks him not to receive ration from his shop.
I would, therefore, request you to take necessary steps against him so that the residents are not put to any sort of harassment in future.
Yours faithfully,
ABC
