During his visit to Jammu and Kashmir after the ceasefire, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Thursday questioned whether nuclear weapons are safe in the hands of an “irresponsible and rogue nation” like Pakistan. He urged international agencies and organisations to supervise them.
He also suggested that Pakistan’s nuclear weapons should be monitored by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), which works to ensure nuclear energy is used only for peaceful purposes and not for making weapons.
“Today, from the soil of Srinagar, I want to raise a question before the entire world: Are nuclear weapons safe in the hands of such an irresponsible and rogue nation? I believe that Pakistan’s nuclear weapons should be placed under the supervision of the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency),” Singh said while addressing the soldiers.
