Jagannath Vedalankar's Correspondence with The Mother

15 July 1948

Gracious Mother,

Some time back, one of the workmen broke the asbestos door of their latrines. I showed the broken pieces to the president of their union and requested him to detect the mischievous worker. But nothing could be done by our enquiries.

Today again a part of another door is found to be broken as well as a part of the brick wall of the workmen’s latrines. But the mischievous hand is not known, and as such acts are committed secretly, it is not easy to catch the mischievous fellow red-handed. What step should we take to stop such mischief?

It can be announced that if such depredations continue without the culprit being found out all the workmen will be held responsible. The president must be informed of this.

Love and blessings
