Dear Madam
I do not like making complaints but I think you might know that Deepti came home yesterday with a serious cut over her eye and in a rather emotional state.
It appears that she had been struck by a boy—I think his name is Goonjan—who simply terrifies her. It was difficult to get the full story from Deepti but I gather that the boy hit her with a stick or cane that he wears in his belt.
Deepti is in such a state of fear that it was not easy to persuade her to go to school today. I have reassured her, I believe, by emphasizing that you will be certain to see that it does not happen again. I am quite sure that a word from you to the boy in question will suffice. I should not like him to get into unnecessary trouble through this episode.
Apart from this incident, Deepti has been happy at D.A.V. Public School and my husband and I are most grateful to you for the progress she appears to be making.
Yours truly
Anita Bhaskar
