Indian missile test carried by Pak websites

Islamabad: Pakistani websites prominently displayed the news of India successfully testing the Agni-V minutes after the long-range nuclear capable ballistic missile was launched.

India on Thursday test-fired the Agni-V missile that can accurately hit targets more than 5,000 km away. With this launch, India entered an exclusive club of nations that have this capability.

The News International carried an agency story with the headline "India successfully tests Agni-V missile". An accompanying photograph was of an Agni missile that was showcased during a Republic Day parade in New Delhi.

Pakistan's leading daily Dawn ran an agency story "India tests long-range nuclear-capable missile: source". The story cited a defence source as saying that missile was capable of delivering a one-tonne nuclear warhead anywhere in China.

The accompanying photograph was of the Agni-V blasting-off in India's Orissa state.

China has been threatening us for decades based on their both offensive and defensive capabilities but majorly on offensive capabilities. No country is weak at any front. China rightly says we should move in a direction that boost co-existense of neighbouring countries. These are only words from them. Chinese basically follow hide and seek strategy.

Beware our enemies. Now india can give a good reply to its enemies even if pakistan and china jointly attack on indian soil. We are now capable of giving good reply to them from Air, Sea & Land and make them regret if they dare to attack us.
