Respected sir,
Subject: For Issuing a Duplicate Ration Card.
I would like to inform you that unfortunately I have lost my Ration Card (No. 84/24185). In the absence of the card, I cannot draw my weekly quota of ration. The card is also needed for establishing my identity. So kindly issue a duplicate ration card as soon as possible.
Thanking You,
Yours faithfully,
Arun
