President Jammu & Kashmir Peoples Democratic Party Mehbooba Mufti schooled Prime Minister Narendra Modi to refrain from warmongering remarks against the South Asian giant, Pakistan.  

Last week, Modi claimed that New Delhi had stopped its policy of being frightened by Islamabad’s threats and said its nuclear capabilities are not being kept for Diwali. He made this addressing a rally as part of his election campaign in Rajasthan.

Reacting on Twitter, Mufti said on Monday, “If India hasn’t kept nuclear bomb for Diwali, it’s obvious Pakistan’s not kept theirs for Eid either. Don’t know why PM Modi must stoop so low & reduce political discourse to this.”

The Foreign Office of Pakistan on Monday also issued a statement, expressing ‘disappointment’ over statement made by Modi pertaining to nuclear arsenals.

Dr. Muhammad Faisal, the Foreign Office spokesperson, stated that Pakistan considers those remarks as ‘highly unfortunate and irresponsible’.

He said such rhetoric for short-term political and electoral gains, with complete disregard to its effects on strategic stability in South Asia, was regrettable and against norms of responsible nuclear behaviour.
