The Act banned hunting of protected species and gave legal protection to their habitats. It also published an all-India list of protected species, helping prevent poaching and trade in wildlife.

Explanation

For a 1-mark question, examiners expect only two brief, distinct points — one line is sufficient. Name the two provisions clearly: (1) ban on hunting/trade and (2) legal habitat protection or protected species list. Do not elaborate or add examples; that would suit a 3-mark answer.
