The correspondence in this file concerns a request from the Sultan of Muscat and Oman [Sa‘īd bin Taymūr Āl Bū Sa‘īd] for Rashid's deputation to be extended beyond May 1951. Also discussed is the level of seniority that should be accorded to Rashid when he returns to service in Pakistan (prior to partition Rashid opted for service with the Government of Pakistan).Notable correspondents include the following: Frederick Charles Leslie Chauncy, Political Agent and Consul, Muscat; the Government of Pakistan's Ministry of Foreign Affairs; Mohammad Abu Rashid, Director-General of Customs in the Sultanate of Muscat and Oman; the Sultan of Muscat and Oman.All the material in the file is dated 1951, with the exception of one item, a notice received from the Government of India's Public Service Commission in Bengal, which is dated 25 June 1940.Physical description: Foliation: the foliation sequence (used for referencing) commences at the front cover with 1, and terminates at the inside back cover with 25; these numbers are written in pencil, are circled, and are located in the top right corner of the recto side of each folio.
