Information Secretary Pakistan Peoples Party's Qamar Zaman Kaira on Wednesday said Pakistan's nuclear arsenal was meant for deterrence and not for belligerence against any country. He made it clear when it would come to defend the country, those weapons would be engaged for sure.
He expressed these views while commenting on Shah Mehmood Qureshi's irresponsible statement regarding Pakistan's nuclear assets. He said it was nothing more than a 'cheap shot'. Talking to a private news channel, he said Qureshi, after defecting his party, was trying to win Imran Khan's trust by unfair means.
He said every person had the right to join any political party, and added Sardar Aseff Ahmed Ali left the PPP on the issue of a ministry, he added. He said the ideological people would not leave their political parties. The PPP and Pakistan Muslim League-N were united on the issue of a democratic system in the country, he added. Kaira expressed the hope that the government would complete its tenure and elections would be held according to the schedule.
