With due respect I would like to lay before you the following facts for your kind consideration.
I passed HSC from your college in 2023 from Arts group securing GPA 5.00. MY session was 2022-2023 and my class roll number was 210. When I was in the college I regularly participated in different co-curricular activities. I was the editor of college magazine. I was an active member of the Science Club. Now I want to get myself admitted into a university. So I am in need of a testimonial from you mentioning all my academic and co-curricular activities.
May I, therefore, pray and hope that you would be kind enough to issue me a testimonial.

2. Write an application to the Principal for an English Speaking Club.
January 5, 2024
The Principal
X College
Dhaka
Subject: Prayer for opening an English Speaking Club.
Sir,
With due respect, we would like to lay before you the following facts for your kind consideration and sympathetic consideration.
English is an international language. Now without English it is not possible to cope with the present world. English helps to get good jobs and better salaries. So every student should learn English properly for student life. In our classes English is taught but emphasis is given on developing only reading and writing skills. We do not get enough opportunity to practice speaking English. But without speaking English properly, it is not possible to communicate with people. So we badly feel the necessity of an English Speaking Club in our college.
We therefore pray and hope that you would be kind enough to set up an English Speaking Club in our college.
Yours obediently

Dhaka
Dear Sir,
I shall be highly obliged if you kindly publish the following letter in your esteemed daily.
Yours faithfully
B, Banani, Dhaka
Extreme Traffic jam in Dhaka City
Traffic jam has become a common affair in Dhaka city nowadays. It has become so acute that now it needs 2 hours to reach a place while it should be only 20 minutes. It kills our valuable time. Traffic jam prevails in the city all day long but specially in office hours and when schools and colleges start and close, the situation becomes the worst. The drivers do not follow the traffic rules and the traffic police also control the movement of the vehicles without following the traffic signals. The number of roads has not increased in proportion to the population growth. There should be a modern traffic system for the Dhaka City. People should also be conscious at the time of moving on the streets. They should cross the roads using over bridges. It is the duty of all of us to make our city traffic jam free.
4. Write an application to the Principal to change an elective subject.
January 5, 2024
The Principal
X College, Dhaka
Subject: Prayer for changing elective subject.
Sir,
With due respect, I would like to lay before you the following facts for your kind consideration and necessary action.
I am student of class xi in your college. At the time of admission, I took Math/Civics/ Computer Science as elective subject. But now the subject seems to be very difficult to me and I find little interest in it. I think I will not be able to do well in this subject. So I have decided to take Biology/ Geography/Statistics in stead of Math/ Civics/Computer Science.
I therefore pray and hope that you would be kind enough to allow me to change my elective subject.
Yours obediently
