Parts for hurricane lanterns being manufactured in the factory.Products ranging from paper clips to road rollers are being made in India's Ordnance factories. From used cartridge cases they turn out brass tumblers and cycle bells in thousands. Lakhs of hurricane lanterns are fashioned by tools which made deadly weapons. Special steel which went into the making of munitions is now spared to make toy motor car springs. Tools for sewing machines, sections for electric switches, textile machinery components, Jute mill parts, locomotives and marine engine parts, machine tools, furniture and axles for carts are some of the articles manufactured for civilian consumers and Indian industries.
