Khawaja Asif, the Pakistan’s Defence Minister has claimed that the Attack on Indian Army base at Uri which killed 18 soldiers was planned by the Indian Government and any further allegation on Pakistan will result in War.
“We will destroy India if it tries to impose war on us. Our army is fully prepared to answer India,” he said in a statement.(Really?)
He also claimed that the Uri attack was a part of a strategy by the Indian government, to distract the world from the Kashmir Issue.
The Pakistan’s representatives are also planning to approach the International Court of Justice, if India suspends the Indus Water Treaty. According to them, this treaty is very important for Pakistan’s economy and development.
In a reply to these allegations, India has said that it has all the evidence to prove that the two guides who helped these terrorists, belongs to Pakistan occupied Kashmir, namely Faisal Hussain Awan and Yasin Khursheed.

These outrageous remarks by the Pakistan’s Defence Minister have resulted in an adverse response from the Indian Government.
Indian Prime minister Narendra Modi has decided against attending the SAARC summit in Islamabad.
“India has conveyed to current SAARC Chair Nepal that increasing cross-border terrorist attacks in the region and growing interference in the internal affairs of Member States by one country have created an environment that is not conducive to the successful holding of the 19th SAARC Summit in Islamabad in November 2016“, External Affairs Ministry said in a statement.
Bangladesh and Bhutan have also decided, not to attend the SAARC summit due to the recent tensions brewing between the Pakistan and India.
Mr. Khawaja Asif’s statement has further increased the problems for Pakistan, as recently a bill in US has been signed by 110000 Americans to declare Pakistan as a ‘terrorist state‘.
