- Scope & Content:
-
This file consists of a report, which is attributed to Hermann Anderson Haines, Secretary, Public Works Department, and which provides a brief account of a number of agreements reached between the Government of India and the Persian Government (and between the Government of India and HM Treasury) for the construction (by the Indo-European Telegraph Department) of the following four telegraph lines: the Robat-Seistan line, the Henjam [Henjān]–Bunder Abbas line, the Lingah–Bundar Abbas line, and the Kerman–Bunder Abbas–Lingah–Jask line.
The report, which was received by the Political Department on 28 June 1916, addresses each telegraph line in turn. In addition to summarising the negotiations relating to each line and the agreements that were reached, each section records the overall cost of each line, and, where applicable, the date of completion.
