oday, license is compulsory to keep any arm. So ordinary pistol is available only to
those who can spend 1.5 lakhs rupees. So a particular class connected with the
bureaucracy can get the license and they use it for protecting their own interest and tosupress the common masses. So common masses have become totally slave, totallycoward and totally helpless and totally fearful. The common masses have lost their
boldness and self respect entirely. If pistol or revolver is free to keep for self defence, it
can be easily manufactured and sold at the cost of Rs. 200/- only. So any ordinaryperson can keep it. So Gunda person will think 100 times before they harass the
innocent person because he will fear that by harassing the innocent person, he may use
pistol or revolver any moment. Gunda people are never fearless. Presently 4 to 5
Gunda persons come to a village, fire some rounds and create terror throughout thevillage and kill innocent people and rob the entire village. If the free right to keep the
arms is existing, this scene is never possible and if it happens, Gunda can never go
back alive. Today handful of Government employees harass the crores of people andextract corruption illegally. But people can not do anything. If the free right to keep the
arms is existing. Nobody can dare to do open corruption and to supress and harasscommon masses. If somebody tries, he may be the victim of wrath of the citizens. So
Government administration will become straight forward and in real sense, it will servethe people. In this way, if the arms are free to keep, robbery, harassment, corruption,
exploitation etc will be abolished and people will live fearlessly. Then, people will
enjoy real swaraj. Present life is worse than slavery.
Therefore, Aazadi Bachao Andolan desires to make provision in the constitution tointroduce the right to keep the arms for self defence as the fundamental right.
Government can not enact any law to snatch away this right. Gram Sabha and District
Panchayat will have the right to snatch away the arms from criminal minded particularpersons. But State Government and Central Government will have no such right.
It will be interesting to study the situation in USA where to bear and keep the arms
freely is the constitutional right of the people. There exists real democracy in USA andthere is no any fear of Government among the people because crores of people have
arms with them and hence Government affraids to make any law displeasing the
people. So in USA, a lot of emphasis is given to protect the constitutional right to bear
and keep the arms without any interference of the Government. Some well knownquotations from dignitories are given below favoring the free arms right in USA.
Quotations from dignitories favoring free arms right.
* "The strongest reason for people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a
last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government."
- Thomas Jefferson
* "That a well-regulated militia, composed of the body of the people trained to arms,
is the proper, natural and safe defense of a free state; that standing armies in time
of peace should be avoided as dangerous to liberty; and that in all cases themilitary should be under strict subordination to, and governed by, the civil power."

- - George Mason.
* "If the laws of the Union were oppressive, they could not carry them into effect, if
the people were possessed of the proper means of defense."
- - William Lenoir
*
"Laws that forbid the carrying of arms...disarm only those who are neither inclined
nor determined to commit crimes... Such laws make things worse for the assaulted
and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to preventhomicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an
armed man."
- - Thomas Jefferson.
* "Whenever people . . . entrust the defense of their country to a regular, standing
army, composed of mercenaries, the power of that country will remain under the
direction of the most wealthy citizens..."
- - A Framer
* "The right of citizens to bear arms is just one guarantee against arbitrary
government, one more safeguard against the tyranny which now appears remote in
America, but which historically has proved to be always possible."- - Senator Hubert H. Humprey
* "If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army
pistols or guns, the evil must b e prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and
not by a general deprivation of constitutional privilege."- - Wilson V. State
* "...to disarm the people is the best and most effective way to enslave them..."
- - George Mason.
* "The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because
the whole of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of
regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States."
"The best we can hope for concerning the people at large is that they be properlyarmed."
- - Alexander Hamilton.
* "Americans have the right and advantage of being armed - unlike the citizens ofother countries whose governments are afraid to trust the people with arms."
- - James Madison.
* "As civil rulers, not having their duty to the people duly before them, may attemptto tyrannize,... The people are confirmed in their right to keep and bear arms."
- - Tench Coxe
* "The possession of arms makes difficult the collection of taxes and dues, and tends
to permit uprising. Therefore, the heads of provinces, official agents and deputies
are ordered to collect all the weapons mentioned above and turn them over to thegovernment."
- - Toyotomi Hideyoshit.
* "Those who have command of the arms in a country are masters of the state, andhave it in their power to make what revolutions they please. [Thus,] there is no end
to observations on the difference between the measures likely to be pursued by a
minister backed by a standing army, and those of a court awed by the fear of anarmed people."

- - Aristotle
* "To avoid domestic tyranny, the people must be armed to stand upon [their] ownDefense; which if [they] are enabled to do, [they] shall never be put upon it, but
[their] Swords may grow rusty in [their] hands; for that Nation is surest to live in
Peace, that is most capable of making War; and a Man that hath a Sword by his
side, shall have least occasion to make use of it.""The right of self-defense is the first law of nature; in most governments it has
been the study of rulers to confine this right within the narrowest possible
limits...and [when] the right of the people to keep and bear arms is, under anycolor or pretext whatsoever, prohibited, liberty, if not already annihilated, is on the
brink of destruction."
- - Sir George Tucker, Judge of the Virginia Supreme Court.
* "No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession
of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He who has nothing, and
who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him whose property he is,
and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can
call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; also helives precariously, and at discretion."
- - James Burgh
* "...it is liberty rather than peace, which breeds genuine prosperity in a nation."
- - J.J. Rossueau
* "I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people
by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power than by violent and suddenusurptions."
- - James Madison
* "I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government fromwasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them."
- - Thomas Jefferson
* "How does it become a man to act towards the American government today? I
answer that he cannot, without disgrace, be associated with it."- - Henry David Thoreau
* "God grants liberty only to those who love it and are always ready to guard and
defend it."- - Daniel Webster
* "The bureaucracy takes itself to be the ultimate purpose of the state."
"For the bureaucrat, the world is a mere object to be manipulated by him.""In the bureaucracy, the identity of state interest and particular private aim is
established in such a way that the state interest becomes a particular private aim
over against other private aims."
"The bureaucracy is a circle from which one cannot escape. Its hierarchy is ahierarchy of knowledge. The top entrusts the understanding of detail to the lower
levels, whilst the lower levels credit the top with understanding of the general, and
so all are mutually deceived."
- - Karl Marx
* "I believe the American would prefer the policeman's truncheon to the anarchist's
bomb."

slavery.]* "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun."

committing a crime."

* "It is a sin to be silent when it is your duty to protest."
- - Abraham Lincoln
* "Few sometimes know when thousands err."- - John Milton.
