(1) person, in his employment, or whenever any person having rights in such forest contravenes the provisions of section 21, the State Government may, notwithstanding the infliction of any punishment under this Act, direct that in such forest, or any specified portion thereof the exercise of all or any of the rights of pasture or to forest produce shall be extinguished, or for such period as it thinks fit be suspended and, with respect to the practice of jhum cultivation, may take such action under section 90, sub-section (4) as may seem to be proper. (2) From the date so fixed such forest or portion shall cease to be reserved, but the rights, if any, which have been extinguished therein shall not revive in consequence of such cessation.
