If Pakistan uses Nasr mounted Neutron Bombs it will not make any significant blast,just massive neutron flux which wont last long either. But that Neutron flux will penetrate armored divisions and kill or incapacitate the crew,thus stopping a massive armored assault by India .
Read up on neutron transport and modern composite tank armour before spouting off on 1960 era theories.
1 kiloton sized neutron weapons, especially from a country that has no demonstrable Pu test or neutron test, would have marginal effect on even T-72s which have boronated armour. ERA and other NBC liners further increased tank resilience to fast neutrons.
There's a reason why the US and west stopped dead in their tracks in neutron bomb development...when they did tests and simulations on armour columns. The supposed advantage that neutron bombs were supposed to afford over regular thermal and pressure damage was found to be grossly overestimated (i.e their ranges were found to be quite similar when easy precautions had been taken by the armour side regarding armour development and other NBC mitigation technologies).
Plus no armour group is going to go in without adequate anti-air protection with radar and mobile SAM. A slow moving cruise missile would be a ripe target.
So if India does credibly establish that Nukes had been used,which will be very difficult as it was just a Neutron bomb which does not make mushroom clouds and very low residual radiation,by that time many Indian soldiers will already be our POWs as we just stopped a massive armored assault in its track.
Again shows how little you know about nukes. 1 kiloton nuke effects, ground or air-burst are easily noticeable by even the oldest of satellites both optically and thermally....neutron or regular.
Neutron bombs have thermal and optical presence, they do not go away....they are just reduced compared to having a DU or other tamper. They stay easily noticeable and measurable to anyone watching....because considerable fission still occurs at ground zero.
So India firing Strategic Missiles on Pakistan will also mean killing own soldiers while there will still be no conclusive evidence of a Nuclear weapons use by Pakistan,and most probably India firring Agni will be considered first strike by the rest of the world and many Indians,and then the cherry on the top will be Agni Killing a brigade or two of Indian soldiers,and starting a "Second Strike" by Pakistan.
We are not going to counter by way of targetting the origin of the fire. Strategic warheads will be sent on their way to the known nuclear infrastructure and cities of Pakistan. Engaging in any level of nuclear weapons use will invoke automatic level 10 response from India if the former succeeds in any major capacity.
Unless you believe your forces are so weak that Indian troops will have already entered Pakistan's cities by the time Nasr is used and somehow succeeds somewhere....thats the only way Indian troops get caught in Indian nuclear explosions on Pakistan.
