Unsafe Pakistani Nukes?

News pouring-in from different countries indicates that the Pakistani nuclear weapons may not be safe as we all assumed to be. It is reported that the weapons are being moved from place to place in unsafe civilian vans to avoid detection by US. Global nuclear watch dogs also of the opinion that the Pakistan surged ahead of India in terms of nuclear war heads and the country is now building small tactical nuclear weapons for quick deployment. In case of any serious difference of opinion occurring between the Pak Army Chief and the President, it is likely that the control over the war heads may be loosened resulting in the nuclear arsenal falling into the hands of terror groups.

The Prime Minister of India while addressing the country’s top military brass cautioned about the possibility of the Jihadis gaining access to the Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal and also getting to know how to make “Dirty Bombs” using nuclear materials. The scenario is frightening.

India needs to be prepared for appropriate responses to deal with these situations and should build its own capabilities to stand on its feet whenever, required, said the Prime Minister.

The concerned agencies should demonstrate to the public the existence of such capability and is workable.
