Sir/Madam,
Subject: Concern on decision to crack down of Perambur Museum building.
I am devaraj living in venkatraman street, Perambur, Chennai, India. Recently, I saw the news about push down of Perambur Museum building. I was shocked after hearing this news because you know that this building is built by ancient king and after him, the British had kept as museum where it contains ancient sculptures, antiques, coins, artifacts and so on. Moreover, the style and architecture of the building depicts ancient arts and culture. It is store house of wisdom and it is a source of information for everyone in our locality.
Due to shortage of fund you had taken this decision but it is unfair to locality. I and locality people are very much worried about decision of crack down of the historical building. As you know it is symbol of our area. Everyone in this area wants it to be renovated and museum should be opened back in the same building so that local people will get benefit to acquire more information about the historical life. Please reconsider the decision of crack down of the building.
Yours faithfully,
Devaraj
