Less lethal plastic bullets will be used to tackle law and order situations in Jammu and Kashmir, the Lok Sabha was informed today.
Union Minister of State for Home Hansraj Gangaram Ahir also said the government has no plans for enhanced use of bunkers to protect security forces from stone throwers after the annual shift of the capital from Jammu to Srinagar in the next few days.
"The government has decided to introduce less lethal plastic bullets also to be used in tackling law and order situations in Jammu and Kashmir," he said in reply to a written question.
