In US, the Senate has passed a Gun Control Bill, which is being cosidered the most significant firearms legislation in nearly 30 years.<br />''<br />'' Fifteen Republicans joined Democrats in the Upper House of Congress to approve the measure by 65 votes to 33. The bill will&nbsp;have to be passed in the House of Representatives.<br />''<br />'' The bill is also significant because it is the first time in decades that proposed reforms have received this level of support from both Democrats and Republicans.&nbsp;<br />''<br />'' It follows mass shootings last month at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York and a primary school in Uvalde, Texas that left a combined 31 people dead. Meanwhile, the National Rifle Association (NRA) has opposed the bill and argued that it will not stop the violence.<br />''<br />''<span style="color: #222222;"> US President Joe Biden earlier this month said, the proposals were steps in the right direction but are still not enough.</span><br />
