The horrific gang rape in the Indian capital last month has spurred Indian women to apply for gun licenses and buy guns, local media reported Tuesday. Since Dec. 18, 2012, the licensing department of Delhi Police has received a total of 274 applications from women while it has also been flooded with hundreds of queries on how to obtain a license, said the report. \"We have received over 1,200 calls since that day. These include not only the average working women, but even students who travel long distances to colleges and even their concerned parents. They were eager to find out more on the procedure to acquire arms, \" said a Delhi police officer, quoted by daily newspaper Times of India. Delhi police sources say hundreds more had also turned up at their office itself. The victim of the gang rape, a 23-year-old medical student, died last Saturday in a Singapore hospital, 13 days after being raped and brutalized by six thugs on a moving bus in south Delhi on Dec. 16.
