My dear Rakesh,
I am glad to write that I had a chance to go to
Nainital last week. We went by Car. My father and mother
were with me. Nainital is a famous hill station. The journey
up the hills was very interesting. But it was frightening to
see below. There are high mountain sand deep valleys all
around. The are full of trees. Mountain sides also have
huge trees. The peaks are covered with snow.
Nainital has a large lake we did boating in it, and enjoyed it
very much. Nainital has several fashionable markets and
hotels. There are many tourist sports near Nainital we
visited than too. My visit to Nainital ws memorable
experience.
With love,
Yours Sincerely

industrial development is taking speed at the cost of
ecological imbalance. It is high time for the development of

and forest is necessary. Forests should be protected at any
cost and should be declared nation property people should
be encouraged to plant more trees. Those who are found in
the activity of deforestation should be captivated under
National Security Law. All the State Governments should
work in complete collaboration with central Government in
the protection of forests.
