You all are aware that last time we have decided to not only to increase the circulation but also the number of pages and we stick to that.

As we stated last time we have started publishing the letters of appreciation and views from different parts , we have continued with that , but as you all are aware that we can’t publish all of them so we have picked up the letters randomly and no specific thought have prevailed while selection of the same.
