ABSTRACT
The fifth chapter critically analyses the general disarmament policy of the British and how it severely hurt the Chin/Zo sentiments, who considered guns as one of their most prized possessions. It also examines how colonial disarmament policy backfired and resulted in a strong resistance movement, since the disarmament policy made guns the bone of contention between the British and the Chin/Zo. To what extent gun licensing was a success as far as disarmament was concerned is also examined.
