Khawaja Asif’s comments do not portend a paradigm shift in Pakistan. He may believe it to be true but it risks inflaming the already tenuous ties with the military
In the first of a three-part opinion series on Pakistan, Paul Kapur writes that solving Pakistan’s jihad problem requires more than just reforming its Army—or threats from the U.S. Pakistan needs to change its national narrative.
Paul Kapur
Pakistani politics is so important for India that we Indians can't be faulted for being obsessed with it. But must we continue to be ignorant and self-servingly patronising about it?
For all the smartness of its political class and all powerful army, Pakistan has lost half of its people and territory, has less of Kashmir and is now seen as a global migraine.
What should be of concern is other states following suit and enacting separate laws to suit the political environment of respective states citing the Punjab bill as a precedent.
Mini deal will likely see no cut in 10% baseline tariff on Indian exports announced by Trump on 2 April, it is learnt, but additional 26% tariffs are set to be reduced.
BJP has no dynastic succession, at least not at the top. You can trace this back to Vajpayee-Advani era. This act of spotting, empowering younger talent is even more striking with the choice of BJP presidents.
The authenticity of these reports is very ambiguous, but if it is true then there is a hidden message for IAF chief in this news, who is dreaming for attacking Pakistan nukes. Pakistan makes these three tunnels you are reporting, in a zik zak fashion. So that an attacker aircraft cannot tackle it in one run. These facilities are so secure that even if terrorist have entered into the facilities it would be of no use because the technology Pakistan is using is quite complex. IAEA also had said that Pakistan is using multiple sort of switches, multiple sort of ways to deploy its nuclear assets. So it cannot be done just by some militants walking into the facilities.
Its Pakistan’s sovereign right to secure its nuclear weapons and if that place has been selected, its best for Pakistan. But in case of India, we have seen secret nuclear cities being built to make more weapons. Unlike India, Pakistan is doing lot better with regards to safety and security of its nuclear arsenal. We hope, in security practices, India follows Pakistan.
The above article shows how desperately Indians are obsessed with Pakistan and its national assets. Thats they find it quite easy to target them and time and again make them highlighted in front of media(print). I mean this is quite kiddish the way author has tried to defamed Pakistan’s nuclear weapons while emphasizing on the locations where nuclear weapons are stored and the data is so vulnerable that anybody can get access to it. I mean seriously??? Get a life u poor Indian Losers… Stop pointing towards Pakistan’s nuclear weapons and focus on whats going on on your own soil. Where people are not having access to toilets.
OVER the past decade, a hostile consensus has emerged against Pakistan. The main reasons for this adverse evolution are: growing Islamophobia after 9/11; visceral opposition to a Muslim nuclear weapon state; the divergence on Afghanistan; and, most importantly, Pakistan’s strategic relationship with China.
I think..There is no need of any enclosure by anyone ..no place us secret …Latest sattelite tech can search,locate,reach anywhere .
So,it’s good for store n protect. Not for use.
If a single is used .Ready to eat dozens.
That’s all.
The main defence of a nuclear arsenal site is its anonymity , hence I doubt whether it is purposely circulated by paki govt to divert attention.
No amount of barriers would be effective if the area is attacked with megaton sized nuclear weapons first, because , the amount of radiation, debris, smoke, heat and other effects of a nuclear blast would render any human habitation impossible there. All weapons will be trapped inside the tunnel, the approach roads would be destroyed, all people stationed there would be burried alive..

How about India…… did Mr. MODI has any plan to do some sort of modification ? Or simply busy in chest beating….☺☺
Wonder why is it clandestine?

Every state has a sovereign right to plan it’s defences and offences.india has its own rights to plan it’s weapons.why bother about Pakistan.
Are you retired or supposedly retired like Kulbushan Yadav or just a little bit sad.
Great reply bro.
Bro Indian Trolls have been promoted from zealot, profane, haters to fake news and blogging.
This is called spreading misinformation and creating unecessary hysteria but sadly any sane man can see through this B.S.
