Gwalior (Madhya Pradesh): Want a gun licence? Plant trees and shoot a selfie — this is the new rule in Madhya Pradesh’s Gwalior-Chambal region, known for its infatuation with firearms. An exception will be made only if the licence is sought because of an immediate threat to the applicant’s life.
“Gun licence seekers will need to plant at least 10 saplings. If the person does not own land, the administration has earmarked revenue land where he or she can plant saplings,” said Gwalior District Collector Anurag Choudhary.
