Chambal was once one of the most dangerous places in India. Since then, the dacoits have surrendered, but how much gun culture has remained? Brut journalists spent a week in this infamous borderland to find out.
Had no idea India had their own Texas, they all seem like good people who only want to protect their families and property. As an American I respect that ❤️🇺🇸
I live in Bhopal, but my village is in Bhind. I can assure you that the guns they keep are for their interest in weapons and not to harm anyone..The fact is that Bhind & Morena produces large number of personnels in the Indian Army, BSF, and Police forces. there was a time when dacoits ruled over the chambal region, but the reforms in the administration has drastically changed the scene of chambal.
I believe every gentleman citizen except criminals should be allowed to keep guns. If one violates the law strong action will be taken against them. Weaponisation of commons will drastically solve many problems of India.
@@yashpalchaudhary9752 I am against LIBERAL GUN LICENSE regime, In America they say Conservatives and RW encourage Gun culture, similarly i am RW hindu who support Modi but i dont want same incidents which happen in USA every week, some chutiya picks up a gun and kill children in school college party shopping mall etc. It is almost impossible to do background check in country like india, thoda paisa do Character certificate bhi bann jayega farzi. I am in support of VERY STRICT GUN LICENSE REGIME, only those who have VERY HIGH LEVEL OF THREAT or evidence that he or she can be attacked anytime should be granted license.
The United States is the most heavily armed population in the world. The people here are still rude as fuck. We got a bunch of guns and a bunch of assholes. I'm sorry Mr. Heinlein. Your logic does not hold up.
Well only if law allows it otherwise it gives you an tyrranic advantage over other people Yes I say advantage bcoz guns are illeagle so nobody has them, machetes and other tools are pretty famous though
I disagree with you. So anyone can carry a gun as long as they are patient and responsible? Most people carrying a gun are responsible? Or should I trust in them with my life because they carry a gun so they must be responsible?

After watching the whole video.. I honestly feel like you bothered these people for no reason. Honestly their hospitality and openess to talking with strangers is the beautiful part of this video. They had no reason to entertain the interviewer.. outside of their own very warm and social culture.
these journalists are typical orientalists- people who see and judge their own people through the eyes of a western colonizer. did you notice the accented english that the girl has? It is like a juicy coincidence that not just her pronunciation, but even her mind is westernized.
It's funny reading your comment and the thread. The reporter through the reporting shows us through the words of the locals their story and their reason for the prevalence of gun culture. This is absolutely alien for many people living in many other places in India forget the world. About the accent. There are 140 Cr Indians last I checked. Many living abroad. Born abroad, educated abroad. The channel is also targetting a global audience. Where majority of the people would understand the language the way she says it. To assume that to be westernization is ridiculous

We are not like anyone like you. Dont teach us. We wil and an surrender weapons if the government ask to do. And give up our guns during elections. So we are not against the government or such law.
But govt is afraid here of people having guns, they will never allow this because India is a very diverse country. There would be too much violence here if guns will be allowed like in West + secessionists will also benefit from this

Good to spot a person like you. I also support guns for all except criminals. But I also want Right to recall CM Right to recall SP Jury system, to ensure fair use and justice delivery in case of mishap.
I’m strong advocate for guns for self defence not show off. We need change. The older generation has offered so much for us, but they’ve also screwed us equally by taking our rights away.
It's not a problem to own a gun every citizen has the freedom to get a weapon through the legal procedure, the problem is about the harm, that not everyone but a few could do and if one has to commit a crime he can even kill a person with a stone or anything. Your video is focusing over weapons idk what is wrong about having a gun, this culture of owning a gun should never get over and the arms act should get more flexible so that guns could be more reachable and people go less towards the illegal made guns or so called Desi kattas.
Belonging to Chambal, Mirzapur was nothing special to me that's why I never watched it. But Dacoits were not Savages those people had some ethics. My father who was a policeman once met Nirbhay Dacoit because he saved him from false charges. Not only Nirbhaya Paid him respect but he also ate food with him & on returning Nirbhaya Touched his feet & gave ₹500 as Gift.
Hmm interesting, I live in Idaho and I have a lot of "guns"(a gun is actually an artillery piece) too. I didn't know it was considered a strange practice. I didn't know owning a weapon of any kind would mean that a person was evil, violent, malicious, or of a criminal nature. I have never felt any type of supernatural influence urging me to commit violence eminating from a firearm or any other weapons. They are basically inanimate objects that require an operator, they do not function independently or have any ability to telepathically control a person's mind. I have never shot a person, but I have shot various types of birds, deer, elk, yak, cattle, a few pigs and several goats,...oh and a rabbit once. (they were delicious once prepared and cooked). If there ever comes any murderous thieves in the night I would not hesitate to introduce them to my shotgun or pistol (I pray I never have to though) as it is permitted by the law of my State and God Almighty as well as the local Constable of course. Never leave loaded firearms unsecured or unattended, don't point a firearm at anyone or anything you don't intend to shoot, don't drink alcoholic beverages before handling firearms, don't act like a fool and wave around or brandish firearms, sabers, swords, or other edged weapons (because that's a good way to get yourself shot). Take care and be safe, and may the Lord bless you. Have a great day !!!
In India you can't own a gun unless you are in army, police Or some security services. Another way of getting legal permission to own gun is by giving a good enough reason in court that why you need it for security.
Having a firearm is not considered strange in India…nor is it looked down upon in any way…it is only the unlicensed and thus illegal firearms which are almost always used for crime that are considered a taboo. But I understand why you got this idea because the makers of this film portray it to be so. The thing is that the makers themselves have no idea of what the gun culture in India is like and because it’s strange and perhaps a little evil or violent to them they portray it as that in the video too. They approach it with ignorance and a bias and that shows in the video giving a very, very wrong idea.
No, you do not need to go and give some judicial court a reason for keeping firearms for personal protection…it is the district magistrates office that issues them besides the home ministry etc. And personal protection isn’t even the only or the most common reason…you can be a recipient of a legacy arms licence…you can have one issued because you are an athlete indulging in any sports that involve firearms…you can even get them in special cases for hunting animals if the animals are damaging crops etc…
The fact that these people understand that keeping gun gives you a responsibility to protect those around you and not dominance over others is more than enough to respect their choice to possess a firearm PS : I am against mass gun ownership that can simply lead to chaos. One should own a firearm only and only if the the best way to counter a threat to oneself and those around him/her is no longer possible by any conventional method. Again gun ownership comes with responsibility to defend yourself and those around you not to assert dominance and I do believe a gun ownership lisence should only be given after strict and stringent character, need and previous criminal record assessment.
@@Gangster88232 well I am not going all guns blazing with the second amendment. Damn India don't even have that but Indians still posses the right to defend oneself and if needed each other. If the sole purpose of gun ownership is that of a protective counter measure then it's no longer primitive on the contrary it is civilized. Once again gun ownership is extremely hard to come by in India legally. If you are found in possession of illegal firearm or katta you are in a hell of a ride for prison and court visitings.
I think brut didn't understand baisc logic of gun culture in chambal Most of these guns are licensed and since india have strict gun laws Licenced guns show that you have high contect in "Beurcacy" People have basic mentality that an person with licensed guns is dabang But situation is changing since quality education is coming in the region

Asha Sikarwar is a woman of character. The women's got courage and style. I loved it. On the side note government should create jobs and improve the quality of education. When the younger generation will study the impact of violence not just in India but from all around the world then their perception regarding violence might change.
education can make a person intelligent but self defence is must we r living in violent culture where criminals have illegal andmore lethal weaponsthan licenced weapons .It is not practical approach we have seen 1984 mass killingswhere victimshave guns or swords there was less causaulties.

You do know that a sound person can become "unsound" anytime right? When anger takes over, even the calmest priest can become violent. Every Indian owning a gun is recipe for disaster.
@@noice8674Which is why you can't get a license if you're not mentally stable, they will do a background checkup on you and make sure you don't have any criminal records and if you are sane person before they give you the license and this unsound person can also use knives, cars, or actually pretty much anything hard or sharp to kill people so just being concerned over guns which are wayyyyy more fucking harder to get is dumb and every person owning a gun will make it easier for them to defend against this unsound person too
@@iamepicfumo2360 You don't understand. Person might be mentally stable during background check but you never know what is going to happen to his mental stability after 3-4 years after getting the license. That's what I was telling. And about knives, cars or sharp objects, it doesn't kill as many people as firearms. Moreover you have a chance to defend yourself against knife unlike guns. That's what is happening in America. Person will be sane during background check but snaps after a couple of years and involves in school shooting, public shooting etc which could have been avoided if not for the guns. Even the military veterans aren't exception to this.
@@iamepicfumo2360 Not having guns is always far better than everyone owning a gun. Also you cannot Rome with a gun to defend yourself all the time can you? Would you carry a gun to work, school etc? No right. That's why gun culture is dangerous.
Self Defense is our right.. Make it more easier for all People in Entire India with no Criminal Record to buy Guns. Our Hindu Ancestors always had Swords for Self Defense, Today we have Guns, no difference. A Nation that is ashamed to defend itself will go down in History as a Cowardly Nation.

As I am from Jalaun district of Chambal,UP, I could say thatthe things have changed for good, while my grandfather was alive, we had 3 guns in the house and now that he is no more, we just have 1 in the house, with time things are changing and we rarely get to use those guns cause of this change. It was very common but it's no more that common nowadays.

Scindia Never did that they themselves Supported Britishers and Gun are hand made and they were never allowed in chambal we use to make ak 47 in Bhind by our own Hands from scratch
Some issues with QR codes on ammo: Revolvers won’t automatically eject shell casings. Judging by the photos of those illegal firearms, they won’t either. What about someone defacing the QR code prior to shooting ? Or picking up a spent casing with someone else’s QR code and reloading it ( applying a new primer, gun powder and bullet to the casing ). Then if it’s used in a crime the finger is pointed at an innocent person. Seems like it may increase the cost of owning firearms, but likely will do little in regards to crime.

Exactly. Here in Gujarat it is just as difficult to get a license as in the east; Guns are a self-defense asset, and they only get wrong when the naive masses think of them as something violent innit
