 sanction of the Conservator, be granted without charge.

Explanations. 



(a) Shikari follower in these rules means a person who is taken into the Reserves 

 for the purpose of killing or catching game, and is not merely an attendant on the 

 holder of the permit. The intention is that eaoh <: effective gun " of the party should 

 pay the fee. Persons employed by the holder of a permit in tracking, marking down, 

 or beating for game (where this is allowed) are not Shikari followers within the 

 meaning of Rules V. and VI. 



(b) The holder of a permit is allowed to remove from the forest any game 

 shot by him. 



(V?) Shooting will not ordinarily be allowed within " fire protected forests " during 



the hot season.
