Q) At a recently held Nuclear Summit 2012 in Seoul in South Korea, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh referred to nuclear terrorism. It clearly refers to groups like Al Qaeda and anti-India terror groups based in Pakistan. Your first reaction.
ANS: This question has to be considered in the context of the turmoil within Pakistan, which has increased the danger that some part of Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal may fall in the hands of a group like Lashkar-e-Toiba or what is even worse that someone in the nuclear establishment of Pakistan is himself a fundamentalist. This is something that everyone is worried about. The Americans, for example, have been very keen to train members of the Pakistani nuclear establishment in safety measures.
