Dear Uncle,
After a long time, I am feeling very happy to write you this letter. We all are
enjoying good time here. Hope you and aunty are also keeping well. My final
exam is scheduled from Chaitra 7 to Chaitra 20. So I’m planning to visit you during
new year. I will arrive there on 29 Chaitra and will probably stay for one week. I
will also visit different places during my stay there.
I’m so much excited to meet Arya. I hope she has started to go to Montessori class.

Please do write and let me know if you will be able to arrange time for me. I am
looking forward to seeing you.

Convey my Namaste to Aunty and lots of love to Arya.
With love,
Kirtee

Types of letter on the basis of use and priority

The following six types of letters can be included on the basis of importance or priority
according to ‘Administrative Job Clearance Act, 2026’:
a. Ordinary letters: Letters which are written for less important and regular types
of subject matters are known as ordinary letters. These letters comprise less
important subjects and need not be kept for future reference. Regular notices,
invitation and greeting cards etc. are the good examples of such letters. Action
for such letter should be taken within 3 to 7 days because relevancy of such
letters is very short.
b. Urgent letters: The letters written for urgent matter are, of course, urgent
letters. The word "Urgent" is marked on envelop to show its importance and
urgency. The urgent letters should be taken into action within 5 days if the
receiver himself can process, otherwise, they should be presented to the senior
level within 2 days.
c. Most urgent letters: The most urgent are such letters on which action should
be taken into within 3 days if the receiver himself processes for clearance.
