Topo sheet is a map that represents topographical data about land features. Topo sheets are named by Survey of India, such as 45D/10 (Rajasthan area) based on the Quadrant, Quarter sheets in it.
'Motorable in dry season' is an indicative information written on a topographical map.
This indicates that the cart track mentioned in the sheet is meant to be used only in dry season, when there is no rainfall.
Cart track is a rough roadway that is usually made of soil/mud and it might be situated in a area that receives rainfall at monsoon times. There are possibilities that the track could get damaged and become unsuitable for travel.
