They echoed that toy guns and violent video games were corrupting vulnerable minds of the kids.

“Parents are a key for peaceful tomorrow. If parents don’t think about the toy weapon and video games, then who will think? Government will never think about all this,” said Kishore Giri, a noted musician of Assam.
