To resolve this, I have already taken the following steps:

2. I have also submitted a written request to the Station Officer on [Date of submission] (copy attached for your reference).

There has been no change in the status for over [Number of weeks/months, e.g., “five weeks”]. This delay is causing me significant issues as I require the passport for [Mention a genuine reason, e.g., “an urgent business project/admission process abroad / family emergency”].

• If the report has not been received, please resend the verification request to the concerned police authorities.

I am ready to provide any further documentation or cooperation required from my side.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
