UPSC CISF-AC-EXE – 2017
A passenger with a licensed revolver can carry it in their hold baggage only after declaring it to the airline at the time of check-in.
Carrying firearms or ammunition in cabin baggage is strictly prohibited. Specific security procedures must be followed for transporting licensed firearms in checked baggage.
The firearm must be unloaded, properly packed in a secure case, and declared to the airline staff. There might be fees and specific documentation requirements depending on the airline and destination. Obtaining DGCA clearance for routine passenger travel with a licensed firearm is not the standard procedure; adhering to airline and security regulations at check-in is. Handing it to the Captain is incorrect.
