एतेन अन्त पाल दुर्ग संस्कारा व्याख्याताः ॥

The same rule shall hold good with the appointment of boundary, guards, and repairers of fortifications.

english translation

न च बाहिरिकान् कुर्यात् पुरे राष्ट्र उपघातकान् । क्षिपेज् जन पदे च एतान् सर्वान् वा दापयेत् करान् ॥

Never shall báhirikas who are dangerous to the well being of cities and countries be kept in forts. They may either be thrown in country parts or compelled to pay taxes.
