It seems like 2024 was a year of crackdowns and cancellations for firearm and liquor licences in Pune. With 200 firearm licence holders receiving notices to justify the need for their licences, and strict measures taken against FL-III licences for liquor sale and transport, the police force is clearly taking a no-nonsense approach to ensuring public safety.
Commissioner Kumar emphasized that licences were cancelled for those involved in criminal activities or for non-renewal, showing a zero-tolerance policy towards misuse of licences. Additionally, the decline in FL-III licences for liquor sale and transport is evident from the lack of NOCs issued in 2024, compared to previous years.
With only 65 firearm licences issued in 2024, a significant decrease from 186 in 2023 and 279 in 2022, and a total of 82 FL-III NOC applications rejected in 2024, it’s clear that the police force is serious about enforcing regulations and preventing misuse of licences.
The proactive approach of Pune city police in 2024 demonstrates their commitment to responsible licensing and public safety. Let’s hope that these measures lead to a safer and more secure community for all residents.
