Indian officials warn Kashmiris of possible nuclear attack: Report

LOL!!!! Why Pakistan will nuke the land which belongs to her???

Well, if they are delusional enough to believe it is theirs, then they might be crazy enough to nuke it too. Only a complete failure of reasoning would make people think that Indian Kashmir is theirs, and only a complete failure of reasoning would prompt them to nuke and get nuked.

The same reason we fought for in 1947 and 1965.

Makes sense in a ***ed up way, nuking Kashmir will put in harms way a considerable amount of Indian troops stationed there.

one must admit that Pak nukes ne indians ka jeena haram kr rakha ha :D

Jara se saavdhani se badi se badi museebat bhi tal jaati hai... we need something to keep our troops busy while TTP/Drones keeps your Army busy and giving you sleepless nights.

India warns of nuclear threat to Kashmir
BY: PARVAIZ BUHKARI From: AAP

POLICE in Indian Kashmir have warned residents to build underground bunkers to prepare for a possible nuclear war in the disputed region, which is on edge after a string of deadly border clashes.

The warning comes despite a ceasefire which took hold last week in the scenic Himalayan region, after the Indian and Pakistani armies agreed to halt cross-border firing that had threatened to unravel a fragile peace process.

"If the blast wave does not arrive within five seconds of the flash you were far enough from the ground zero," says the notice, headed "Protection against Nuclear, Biological and Chemical (NBC) Weapons".

It warns of "initial disorientation" from a nuclear attack, saying the blast may "carry away many prominent and familiar features".

The instructions were issued on Monday in a local English-language Greater Kashmir newspaper by the State Disaster Response Force, which is part of the police.

They vividly describe a nuclear war scenario to prepare residents to deal with "the initial shock wave".

The notice tells them to "wait for the winds to die down and debris to stop falling".

"Blast wind will generally end in one or two minutes after burst and burns, cuts and bruises are no different than conventional injuries. (The) dazzle is temporary and vision should return in few seconds," it says.

It tells residents to build toilet-equipped basement shelters "where the whole family can stay for a fortnight", and says that they should be stocked with non-perishable food.


Nuclear-armed India and Pakistan have fought three wars since partition in 1947, two of them over the Kashmir region that both nations claim.

Police confirmed they issued the notice but said it "should not be connected with anything else", in an apparent reference to border tension.

The notice is part of regular year-round civil defence preparedness, Mubarak Ganai, deputy inspector general of civil defence in Kashmir police, told AFP.

An Indian counter-terrorism expert criticised the warning as valueless for Kashmiris, who could be forgiven for imagining war was an imminent prospect.

"There can be no conceivable motive for issuing a notice like this," Ajay Sahni, executive director of the Institute for Conflict Management in New Delhi, told AFP.

"Such information collected from here and there is not worth the paper it is printed on," he said, adding that "there can be no preparedness for such an eventuality".

There has been calm along the de facto border in Kashmir since commanders of the two sides agreed last Thursday to halt the cross-border firing.

Pakistan says three of its soldiers died in the firing while India says it lost two of its soldiers - marking the worst violence along the frontier dividing the region since the two nations nearly went to war in 2003.

RINAGAR: Officials in Indian Kashmir warned residents of a possible nuclear attack, advising them to build bomb-proof basements and collect two weeks’ worth of food and water, said a report by Associated Press (AP) on Tuesday.

According to the report, Kashmir police published the advisory on Monday in the Greater Kashmir newspaper, but did not give any particular reason for the sudden concern of a nuclear attack.

The recent skirmishes along the Line of Control (LoC) have heightened tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbours India and Pakistan but both the countries have held talks to ease the tensions.

The recent conflict over the past two weeks has been the worst in Kashmir since a ceasefire was reached in 2003.

The AP report said that the notice by Kashmir police advised people to build bomb shelters with toilets and stockpile food. It also provided advice on how to survive attacks with chemical and biological weapons.

The Indian side was quick to react to the recent conflict as it sent Pakistani artists and sportsmen back home. An Indian political party also intends to protest against the presence of Pakistani authors in Jaipur Literature Festival.

Indian officials warn Kashmiris of possible nuclear attack: Report – The Express Tribune

For years I thought only entertaining newspaper in Punjab Haryana region is Punjab Kesari. Little did i know they have competition.
On serious note, its not Police's job to advice people on ways of protection against any nuke attack. National Disaster Management Agency and Defence establishment alone are qualified for such advice. Also there isn't any such thing as perfect nuclear shelter, a lot of things like possible weapon yeild, likely target (and hence prediction of distance from Zero ground), natural barriers etc determine sheltering effectiveness.
Also if one has noticed, the newspaper makes no attempt to contact Kashmir Police authorities to ascertain correctness of these rumors.
I can only assume in India our desi newspapers can sell anything, International terror including.

Or has First April Arrived a little early this year :woot:

Found a small video (circa 1951) by US Department of Defence on above topic. Interesting watch
