Applying for an Arms License in India

[Mubi]

So from the above discussion does it mean that we cannot apply for fresh license?

Where did they say anything like that.
They are just making it difficult, but if you valid reason, it shouldnt be a problem, even before this amendment, it was not easy getting license.

hi all,
went to the DC office and explained him my position, which is my application being in enquiry for over 3 months..He promised me that my enquiry will go through,but he also confirmed to me that it will be hard for him to grant me a licence as there has been a notification from the home ministry to control grant of licences.he says that if i have a verifiable threat, he could give me the licence..upon me asking him how to prove a verifiable threat to my life,he said.QUOTE 'GET A WRITTEN STATEMENT FROM SP OF POLICE STATING THAT YOU HAVE A THREAT TO YOUR LIFE"UNQUOTE.
it was clarified to me later that apart from the application enquiry process {which also goes to the SP}, this additional point of check has been added to make life miserable..
so,thats how it went.dont know if my DC is over active or it really is the case all over india.

Approaching High Court for a writ against the illegal MHA order dated 31.3.2010 seems to be the only option.

[nagarifle]

if the licence is for sporting then you do not need a life threat report.

[SYED833]

licence is for self defence, and vitamin M is also not working..i wonder why ?

[goodboy_mentor]

For "Sport" is not going to work. Only option is approaching High Court with a help of good lawyer.
