District Development Commissioner Doda issued an order on Tuesday stating that all those licence holders have not yet uploaded their gun licences on the NDAL portal (online), which is why these licences have not been renewed yet.

Doda within a period of 15 days, failing which no application for uploading on the online

will be open) for which the gun licence holder shall be personally responsible,” it added.
