India Nuclear Weapons Stockpile

Pakistan currently has 140 to 150 nuclear warheads and the stockpile is expected to increase to 220 to 250 by 2025 if the current trend continues, according to a latest report by authors keeping a track of the country's nukes.

Pakistan today said India is building a "secret nuclear city" to produce thermonuclear weapons as well as developing intercontinental missiles and secretly stockpiling nuclear material. India described the allegation as" a figment of Pakistan's imagination" and an attempt to divert attention from its record of supporting terrorism.

Pakistan has a nuclear stockpile of between 130 and 140 nuclear warheads, according to a group of American scientists, whosetally is partially based on close scrutiny of satellite images and matches other recent estimates.

Pakistan, estimated to have the world's fastest-growing nuclear stockpile, could be building a new uranium enrichment complex according to commercial satellite imagery analysed by Western defence experts.

The US is concerned over Pakistan's fast-expanding stockpile of nuclear weapons which in combination with evolving doctrine increases the risk of an "accident", a top pentagon official has said.

Pakistan's growing nuclear arsenal and its evolving "tactical nuclear weapons" doctrine pose increasing risk of an "incident", Pentagon's top spymaster has warned.

Stating that India has "one of the largest nuclear power programmes" among developing nations, a US-based think-tank has said that by the end of 2014 India had enough weapon-grade plutonium to possess an estimated stock of atomic weapons in the range of 75-125.

Pakistan could turn into the fifth largest nuclear weapons state in the world by 2025, a report by a top US think tank has said, highlighting the country's rapidly expanding nuclear arsenal. The report comes just a day after Islamabad acknowledged having developed "low-yield, tactical nuclear weapons" to deter an attack from India.

Ahead of Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's visit to the US later this month, the Obama Administration is in talks with Pakistan on a range of issues including limiting and controlling Islamabad's weapons programme, according to a media report.

Pakistan's atomic weapons stockpile has jumped to an estimated 70-90 warheads from a previous figure of 60.
