Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → The Post master, Malgudi post office.
A complaint about a parcel damaged in the post, with a claim for compensation, goes to the officer in charge of the post office from which it was sent: the Postmaster. The task itself names him: "Write a letter to the Post master, Malgudi Mumbai".
Why the Other Options are Incorrect?
Option 1: The Editor, Malgudi days — Incorrect. A letter to an editor raises a public issue through a newspaper; it cannot settle a claim for a damaged parcel.
Option 2: The Sub Inspector, Malgudi police station — Incorrect. The police deal with crimes; damage in transit is a matter for the postal department.
Option 3: The Chief minister, Mumbai — Incorrect. A chief minister heads a state government; a single parcel claim goes to the local post office.
