💨 Abstract

The Delhi High Court has ordered fresh field trials for CRPF's sniper rifle procurement due to allegations of unjust disqualification and use of banned hollow-point bone tail (HPBT) ammunition by two competing firms. HPBT ammunition, which expands upon impact, is generally prohibited in warfare as it's considered excessively inhumane and raises ethical and tactical concerns when used in high-velocity rifles.
