US defence group Raytheon says it wants to sell India a controversial "pain gun" it claims would be safer than rubber bullets in quelling unrest in the insurgency-racked country.

The Silent Guardian Protection System is billed by its makers as the 21st century equivalent of tear gas or water cannon -- a way to subdue rioters while inflicting minimal harm.

The US military withdrew the weapon last year from war-torn Afghanistan amid opposition from human rights activists worried about its safety. The US army has never commented on why it withdrew the system.
