The launching of a nuclear sub by India has again accelerated the Indo-Pak arms race. No one really knows where it will end up. India and Pakistan have already created menaces for each other the nuclear sub issue would be adding fuel to this race. INS Arihant is capable of firing six billastic missles. It is powered by an 85MW nuclear reactor. Pakistan has been working on this nuclear threat since 1990. This move aims at getting international recognition. India is now aiming to become a global player. The Russians and the US is helping to tackle the growing threat from China.
Now what could this nuclear sub can do to Pakistan?
The answer is really horrible! Until now pakistan could shoot out the nuclear sites and reduce the nuclear effect but now they would be roaming here and there carrying these nukes. What makes it more deadly is the fact that the order to press the N-BUTTON could be directly sent to the crew through a direct hotline connecting The Prime Minister and the President. What Pakistan could do is to not go into this race and let it become a regional power but keep enough deterrence to give a befitting responce. What india and Pakistan should realize that NUKES arent toys!!!!!!!
