I had appointed Shaikh Amar Allah to the post of faujdari at the haklah of Hoogli but I now realise that he would not be able to perform his duties without the assistance of Fakhr al-Tujjar. Therefore, I am sending him there and advise you that all relevant cases should now be referred to him at that place. I hope this will not interfere in the affairs of the company.
