Key Provisions
- Prohibition of Arms: The Act made it illegal for Indians to manufacture, sell, or possess firearms without a government-issued license. This restriction did not apply to British subjects, highlighting the discriminatory nature of colonial laws15.
- Licensing Requirements: Indians were required to obtain permission from the government to carry arms, which effectively disarmed the Indian populace and curtailed their ability to resist colonial rule26.
- Control Measures: The Act included provisions for regulating arms import, export, and transport. It also allowed for searches and seizures by authorities if individuals were found carrying arms without proper documentation
