personal concealed carry

[marksman]

I'd be much enlightened if some one guided me as to what all are the pros and cons of carrying a side arm concealed on one's body in general. I possess an all India license for all my fire arms and wonder if i decide to go to a Hotel,theater or a mall with the arm on my person, then how do i go about it.I wouldn't dare to keep it unattended in my vehicle.
Also, is it tue that for domestic flights, Air India does not levy the additional fees for carrying a fire arm with reasonable amount (50) of ammo? I haven't been carrying a side arm from last several years while flying in spite of the need to have it on my person atthe destination I am heading.

You may travel and take you firearm subject to local restrictions. The Airline will charge you an Amount as fee every time you travel. When it come to malls and theatres they reserve sthe right to admittance on their private and will most probably not allow any one with a weapon. I feel it’s a stupid thing but hey I am. It a mall or theatre or restaurant owner .

As per Arms Rules 2016, to make a premises 'firearm free zone' it's owner needs to take 'firearm free zone' license from government under Form XVI of Arms Rules 2016.

But this procedure is hardly followed and most of the premises are made firearm free zone without any license from the government.

It would have been nice if the government had made a rule that firearm free zone would provide facility for the firearm holders to store their weapons safely as long as they are in the premises.
