of such zemindar or farmer as may be required. Should any zemindar or
farmer, after the receipt of such perwannah, neglect to make the necessary
repairs, the 007727722^00 shall submit to Government an estimate of the
expense required for that purpose ; and the repairs shail in all such cases
be made by the officers of Government, and the expense recovered from

proper state of repair. Provided, however, that, in all such cases, the
accounts of the actual expenditure shall be forwarded, through the
channel of the civil auditor, to the Governor-General in Council for his
sanction, previously to the amount being charged to the account of the
zemindar or farmer.

following rules have been established for general observance with respect
to that point.
