I want to know the answer to the following question:
Who were the shikaris headed by?
All the background I'm provided with is that "During the feudal and colonial times in British India, hunting was regarded as a regal sport in the numerous princely states, as many maharajas and nawabs, as well as British officers, maintained a whole corps of shikaris (big-game hunters), who were native professional hunters.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
