    "content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, I rise to support this Motion with a slight amendment. Madam Temporary Speaker, I beg to move that the Motion be amended by inserting the following phrase immediately after the word “licensed” appearing in the ninth line; “are either business people, Government employees or other deserving persons with special interests who” Madam Temporary Speaker, I am proposing this amendment because, currently, vetting is being done. You can apply for a weapon and it can be given to anyone. But by opening it up now and going up to the age of 30 years, I can see anybody rushing to apply for the weapons, including even the criminals. Given the terrorists attacks and the cases of insecurity that have been raised here, I think that it would better if some controls were put in place, so that not everybody can apply for a licence to possess a gun and get it. Madam Temporary Speaker, with those few remarks on the amendment, I wish to ask Sen. Khalwale to second it."
