NEVER ALLOW PAK

The demand raised by Pakistan to have a joint probe into accidental fire of a missile should never be allowed as the same will expose Indian defence capabilities besides giving Pakistan a chance to assess the entire defence set-up in the vicinity from where the missile was shot. It is pertinent to mention that an Indian missile landed near Mian Chunnu city in Pakistan’s Punjab province on Wednesday evening without causing damage to civilian property. Taking a hard stance, Pakistan has averred that it was not satisfied with India’s explanation on the ‘accidental firing’ of a missile and has demanded a joint probe to accurately establish the facts surrounding the incident. Of course there has been a big lacuna by the Indian side as this kind of mishandling of sensitive weaponry is unacceptable but the country has already ordered the enquiry and sooner than later things are supposed to become clear that under what circumstances this blunder has happened but what Pakistan is demanding is not advisable rather it is not possible to allow access of Indian defence systems to anyone from Pakistan. Pakistan reportedly has summoned India’s Charge d’Affaires and conveyed its strong protest over the unprovoked violation of its airspace by an Indian missile. Pakistan’s National Security Advisor Moeed Yusuf had questioned India’s ability to handle sensitive technologies and said the Indian government did not bother to inform Pakistan about the accidental missile firing incident. Pakistan has also demanded that India must clearly explain the type and specifications of the missile that fell in Pakistani territory besides seeking the flight path/trajectory of the accidentally launched missile and how it ultimately turned and entered into Pakistan. This incident has put India in a dock as Pakistan has showered a trail of questions containing a wide range of queries which the country should have to answer as the mistake is a real big one. It is vital for India to give a satisfactory response to Pakistan as this matter is of grave concern and rogue Pakistan can also internationalize the same to gain sympathy of nations which otherwise never listened to its unfounded allegations.
