So- the bloke used a dart gun with poison dart - text said bullet.

That is a PCP air rifle, likely a dart gun.

Small capacity as seen by the tiny air cylinder -

Principal Chief Conservator of Forests AK Mishra told The Indian Express newspaper that a forest staffer had managed to dart the tiger with a tranquilizer at around 11.00pm.

"But she charged at the team, forcing Ashgar to shoot in self-defence," he said. "The tigress lay dead in a single shot."

The "journalist" or "editor" of the newspaper either has no idea of firearms or doesn't care, and just wanted a sensationalist photo to use.
