  4. Power to regulate possession of any poison
  
  in certain areas
  (1) The 5[State Government] 4[***] may by rule
  
  regulate the possession of any specified poison in any local area in which the

  the 5[State Government] may direct that any breach thereof shall be punishable
  
  with imprisonment for a term which may extend to one year, or with fine which
