Vice-Consulates in Persia..
Government of India’s proposal to revive
post of Vice-Consul, Bandar Abbas and to
abolish post of Vice-Consul, Kerman.
In 1933 the consular districts of Kerman and Bandar Abbas
were amalgamated for reasons of economy. A Consular Office
was established at Bandar Abbas and the Consul at Kerman was
to spend some months in the year there.

proposals to His Majesty’s Government, suggested "one officer
as assistant to Consul, Kerman, agrement as Vice-Consul being
sought later. This would cover Bandar Abbas”. This
proposal was sanctioned.

Vice-Consul, Kerman, should be'paid on the time scale of the
