Write a letter to your sister-in-law, inviting her on the occasion of the Republic Day Celebration.

New Delhi.
18 January,…
My dear Sister-in-law Sunanda,
I hope you are all well by the grace of the Almighty. I received your lovelorn letter. Since the day you left for Kolkata, we feel robbed of your sight. It is not possible for me to cover such a long distance with small children. I cannot leave behind the grown-up daughter all alone. Yes, if you wish, the meeting can be possible. Even brother’s L.T.C might be due.
Dear Sister-in-law! I cordially invite you all to come to Delhi on the occasion of the Republic Day Celebration. The weather is pleasant. This time the Republic Day is being celebrated with more gusto and enthusiasm than it was last year and in other cities. For this, preparations are in full swing. We can see the beautiful pageantries displaying the folklife of all the provinces of the country. On this occasion, the best possible means of defence of the country are exposed to the eyes of the beholders. “Kavi Sammelan” and “Mushayara” are arranged in the historic Red Fort. The well renowned Hindi and Urdu poets of the country participate in these. All the government buildings are illuminated brilliantly. Firecrackers are used. Truly speaking, 26th January is a gala day. This time I and your brother-in-law wish you to be with us on this occasion.
I hope you are well settled in Kolkata. My brother will be as busy as ever. That is why we have to look forward to receiving his letters with anxious love.
Chunnu, Munnu and all other children carry you all in their heart and send their greetings to you. Your brother-in-law and all others send their greetings to you all. Love to Mridula. Rest on meeting one another.
Yours affectionately
Prabha
