Dear Sir or Madam,

Last Sunday, I read the suggestion in your newspaper to enlarge the area of local airport and increase the number of flights. I am writing to show my disappointment regarding this plan.

I just live 5 kilometers away from this airport. Currently there are many flights taking off and landing on this airport consequently, it causes noise pollution. Moreover, it is also a reason behind air pollution. Due to this new development there would be hike in noise and air pollution. As result, it deteriorates the health of people residing near to the airport.

I am not in the favor of this development because I am patient of asthma. Increase in number of flights from this airport has direct effect on rising air pollution which would adverse my health. I would request you to publish some awareness about this development plan because it is not beneficial growth for the society.

I would really appreciate if you publish my concern about this development.

Yours faithfully,

Jagroop madison
