India's defence minister Mr. A.K. Antony has warned that due to increased terror attacks Pakistan's Nuclear arsenal can fall into wrong hands. Mr. Antony said that this is serious concern for government of India and its consequences would be unimaginable.
Defence Minister AK Antony said there is hardly any country in the world that is not affected from the scourge of terrorism. He said that but the recent terror attacks in Pakistan and Afghanistan have thrust South Asia into a state of permanent conflict and instability. Mr. Antony was speaking in a seminar in New Delhi on Monday.
Army Chief General Deepak Kapoor said that the possibility of Nuclear war in the region can not be ruled out. General Kapoor said that South Asian region has become equally unstable and place of conflict as West Asia.
The Army Chief warned that the situation would further worsen since there is neither any political or diplomatic unity nor any common ground to build a consensus to fight this new war.
