12.7 mm calibre can not be used against Human Being according to Geneva Convention.

Use of this sniper rifle will be a violation of the Convention.

Indian Army should select something from 5.56 to 7.62 mm calibre

I dont think 12.7 mm cant be used against humans in war.if thts true PAK ARMY is using 14.7mm as heavy machine guns,not to forget 12.7 MM DSHK HMGs and anti material snipers in service with PA.
Anyways isnt this rifle russkie?

Yes the rifle in question is Russian.
And no, there is nothing in any convention against the usage of 12.7 mm on human targets. In fact, by some accounts, the longest sniper kill involves the usage of a 12.7 mm FMJ against a human target in Iraq.
