London, July 20: Replying to a question of Sir Charles Oman, as to whether any measures were contemplated for assimilating the position of European and British subjects serving in Provincial Services in India to that of either Civil Services in respect of the retirement on proportionate pension, Earl Winterton said that no general extension of the right to retirement rules was contemplated, but the Government of India was examining, in consultation with the local Governments, the possibility of entertaining applications of individual officers whose circumstances may appear to be of a very exceptional nature.
