  2. Subject: Need to improve healthcare facilities and set up Wellness Centres.

    Respected Sir/Madam,

    I am a resident of Shanti Nagar and write to draw your attention to the inadequate healthcare infrastructure in our town. Existing hospitals lack beds, equipment and doctors, so patients wait for hours or travel to distant cities. The main causes are scarce resources, a rapidly growing population and the apathy of authorities.

    I therefore suggest that existing facilities be upgraded and more Wellness Centres be opened in every locality for preventive care. A specialised hospital for women and children should also be built, since they need dedicated treatment.

    I trust you will take prompt action in this matter. Thanking you.

    Yours sincerely,
    Soumya Hansal
