Sir,
I am writing this letter to file an FIR for the loss of my PAN card with card number 1920 000. On January 27, while travelling by state bus, I lost my bag that contained my PAN card.
I searched thoroughly but failed to locate it. I guess my bag has been stolen. I am concerned about the probable misuse of my PAN card as it is linked to my financial services, like banking.
Therefore, I request the authority to take the necessary action and file an FIR so that I can claim a new one.
I also attached a Xerox copy of my PAN card. If you need any further information, inform me.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely
Biplab Biswas
