Sub: Book fairs are a bliss for mankind

Dear Sir

Recently, a book fair has been conducted in the city. Your newspaper had given a wide and a quality coverage to the book fair. It was a great pleasure to understand that the book fair was attended by thousands of persons which included a huge number of students also. The publishers are also happy that they have got such a good response from the public.

In the world, where internet has conquered everyone, it is very surprising to find people still interested in books. Going to a book fair and showing enthusiasm is remarkable indeed. I also visited the book fair. When I first went there, I did not expect there to be a crowd at the book fair as nowadays very few people read books and that too at the release of e-books. However, as I entered, I could still see the excitement in the people. The arrangements were all perfect. The people there were all well-read and knew exactly the books that the readers might want to read. There were different kinds of books talking about different things.

After seeing this, I felt people should know that the essence of reading from a book in your hand has still not gone. The different smell of each book is one of its kind which is not available in an e-book. Through the column of your esteemed newspaper, I want to bring it to the attention of the organisers to organise such book fairs in other cities of the state also.

Yours Sincerely
Navtej
