The Indika also mentions that whenever the king set out on hunting, the roads were blocked by ropes and cleared of obstacles and dangerous persons. Dikshitar takes it as a reference to the Rāja-Mārga or the Royal road of Kauṭilya. The latter also states that the royal road was well guarded on both sides and cleared of armed persons, beggars and the crippled.
