What conclusion can be drawn from this excerpt?

Based on the excerpt from Section 10 of the Dawes Act, what conclusions can be drawn regarding Congress's authority to grant rights of way or condemn lands for public use? The excerpt states: "Nothing in this act shall be construed to affect the right and power of Congress to grant rights of way through any lands allotted to an Indian or a tribe of Indians for railroads, highways, or telegraph lines for public use, or to condemn such lands for public purposes upon making just compensation."

It means that “indian land” only belongs to the indians as long as the government doesn’t want it.

They are still doing this today- mining coal, oil, natural gas and uranium on our land.
