Letter : To requesting to enhance monthly allowance

To your father requesting him to enhance your monthly allowance

Examination Hall,

My Dear Father,

I am in receipt of your remittance of Rupees 400/= and after paying the tuition fee, and other dues of the hotel and the land lord I am left with Rupees 20 for meeting my expenditures of the month.

In this context, I have to point out that the cost of living has terribly gone up and it is not possible to live within Rupees 400 despite economization. I am alive to your difficulties as besides meeting the cost of maintenance of the family, you have to meet the cost of the education of my brothers and sisters, but I am constrained to request you to send me Rupees fifty more as no type of economy can help me to manage with Rupees four hundred per month.

Father, I am sorry to trouble you but you can see there is no way out.

Your loving son,
Sohail Anwer
