Mint Podcast: Pahalgam Attack: Why Pakistan’s Nuclear Rhetoric Is Proof That It Is Scared Of India’s Retaliation

  • Summary

  • After India decided to put the Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance, the panic-stricken Pakistani establishment has been making provocative statements. Recently, Pakistan's Minister for Railways, Muhammad Hanif Abbasi, issued a direct 'nuclear' threat to India. His statement was made around the same time Bilawal Bhutto declared, “I want to tell India that the Indus is ours and will remain ours. Either our water will flow through it, or their blood will.”In this interview, Shishir Gupta, Executive Editor, Hindustan Times, while talking to Abhishek Singh, Deputy Editor, Mint argues that the comments of the two ministers are proof that Pakistan is scared of India's retaliation for the Pahalgam massacre. He reveals how India has evolved militarily since the Balakot strike in 2019. He explains why India can make a big dent on Pakistan with its strikes and also has air defence systems that can easily neutralise any Pakistani missile.
