Scope and content

During the time when there was tension between Calcutta and Qasim Ali Khan the administration of the district of Rangpore was suspended. Since then I have petitioned the Nawab to reinstate me to the post but I was asked to present myself at Murshidabad. After reaching Murshidabad and failing to get any results I employed the services of his Vakil and paid him twenty five thousand rupees but he has also failed to achieve any results. As you have close relations with the Nawab I would be grateful if you could intervene and ask the Nawab to help to sort out this case.
