This University arranges this workshop on drama production for its students of mass communication yearly and invites the same producer to deliver a special lecture on drama production. Unfortunately, producer is unable to attend the workshop this year due to his other professionalcommitments. Now he has to write a letter of refusal to that invitation”.

Letter Body:

Unfortunately, I would not be able to attend the workshop as I am occupied in my other professionalcommitments this year.
