Secret Nuclear City in India- Zakaria
By Correspondent
Pakistan today claimed that India is building a “secret nuclear city” and has accumulated a stockpile of nuclear weapons which threatens to undermine the strategic balance of power in the region.This remark was made by Pakistani Foreign Office (FO) spokesman, Nafees Zakaria, at the weekly press briefing while expressing concern over he termed the “Indian defence build-up.”.“India is building a secret nuclear city”, he said.Zakaria also alleged that India has been conducting tests on inter-continental missiles which would disturb the strategic balance in the region. He asked the international community to take note of “Indian drive” to have more deadly weapons and check “rapid expansion” of its conventional and non-conventional weapons.In his assertion that India had been “exposed” by the failure of its efforts to isolate Pakistan, he advised the Indian government to reciprocate the steps taken by Pakistan for peace.Quoting him, “Pakistan remains committed to the principles of peaceful existence with all of its neighbours, including India.” He also went ahead to add that Islamabad was open for dialogue and has taken a number of initiatives but India has failed to respond positively.“Instead of resolving the issues amicably through dialogue, India has adopted a hostile attitude,” he alleged.He accused India of repeatedly violating the ceasefire agreement at the LoC and providing funds to militants to carry out terror activities in Pakistan.Zakaria wants the International community to take note of the threat to peace in the region which the belligerence of India poses”. Rubbishing Islamabad’s claims, New Delhi said such remarks were an attempt by the neighbouring nation to divert attention from real issues of terrorism.“Pakistan’s claims of India’s secret nuclear city is baseless. This aims to deflect attention from real issue of terrorism,” Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson Vikas Swarup told reporters in New Delhi.  Discover more from NewsBreakers
