Ref eren ce telegram Ng._9623 dated the 11th November, 1946,
from the Government of India in the External Affairs Department.
2. I forward copies of Express Letters Nos. 1114-4/6 and
54-4/6 of the 19th December, 1946, and 18th January, 1947,
respectively from Hie Majesty^ Consul, Khorramshahr, with their
enclosures.
3. I consider that His Majesty’s Consul, Khorramshahr, has made
out a very strong case and I support the recommendations made in
para 3 of his letter No.1114 of the 19th December, 1946. I
trust that the Government of India will be able to see their way
to accepting these proposals in full and should be grateful if
their orders could be communicated to me with the least possible
delay by telegram.
4. Efforts will be made to meet as much of the expenditure
involved as possible from within the sanctioned budget grant at my
disposal for the current financial year; and the balance which cannot
be so met will be included in my final statement of savings and
excesses due shortly for submission to the Government of India.
