Illegal arms factory manufacturing Local Pistols ( Kattas) unearthed at Roorkee. Owner arrested
It’s highly worrisome to note that in some parts of Uttarakhand the illegal fire arms are being manufactured which might be sold outside and inside the state to the hardened criminals thus vitiating the otherwise peaceful environment of the Devbhoomi known as the land of abode of Gods.
The increasing environment of deteriorating law and order situation in the state vindicates the fact that even illegal firearms factories are adding to this trend which needs to be strongly countered. The local goins or criminals hardly can get pistols as it’s tremendously do difficult to seek licences due to their bad track records hence they give for the local unlicended pistols called “Desi Katta” thus spoiling the states law and order environment.
