Answer
The methods I would choose to present the demands of the people to the MLA would be:
- I would sent a letter containing the demands of the people along with the reason for each demand clearly explaining the problems faced by the people currently.
- I would request the MLA to visit my area, see the problems himself and interact with a few people to get a firsthand experience of the issues.
- After that, I would arrange for a meeting between the MLA and a select few people of the area at his/her office or residence to further persuade him/her to look into the demands.
I would choose these methods because in a democracy we resolve issues through dialogue within the constitutional framework following legitimate means.

Read the excerpt given below and answer the questions that follow:
The romance is that there is security of life and property in India; the reality is that there is no such thing. There is security of life and property in one sense or way — i.e., the people are secure from any violence from each other or from Native despots… But from England's own grasp there is no security of property at all and, as a consequence, no security for life. India’s property is not secure. What is secure, and well secure, is that England is perfectly safe and secure, and does so with perfect security, to carry away from India, and to eat up in India, her property at the present rate of 30,0000,000 or 40,000,000 a year, …. I therefore venture to submit that India does not enjoy security of her property and life…. To millions in India life is simply 'half-feeding', or starvation, or famine and disease.
