The Commissioner, Halishahar Subject: Application for opening a charitable dispensary. Dear Sir, This is to inform you to draw your kind attention to the flood that has recently visited our locality. The flood has broken all the records of the past. The miseries of the affected people know no bounds. Thousands of people have become homeless. Many of them have taken shelter on rooftops, boats, and embankments. They are now living under the open sky without food and drinking water. Cholera, diarrhoea, typhoid, dysentery etc. Have broken out in an epidemic form the affected people are now badly in needing medicine. But it is a great regret that there is no charitable dispensary in the village. In the meantime, many people died for want of proper treatment. So, it is necessary to open a charitable dispensary here. I,therefore pray and hope that you would be kind enough to grant us to set up a charitable dispensary and oblige thereby. Your faithfully X On behalf of the people of Halisha
