Any idea about the white missile placed near the target drone?
No idea but somewhat similar to AGM-84E SLAM land attack version but I find no reference of its presence in PAF ...
OK find it, it is also Matra R.530 [click here], but here is question as per open source info we have phase out these from PAF yet we are seeing these on display at Sep 6, 2019, therefor I am still confuse about their operational status.

A uniformed guy manning the stall clarified that the weapon was just there for exhibition purpose. Not deployed.

Thanks for posting. This photo is the negation of all the Indian talk (to this day) that PAF did not have a BVR counter for the IAF during the Kargil conflict. The R-530Ds have been in service since late 80s. This, in addition to AIM-9 Limas, were a fairly potent counter for then compared to what the IAF was fielding.

Sir i believe there's some confusion here, PAF had the earlier MATRA R-530 in it's inventory since 70s as it was used in the 1971 war, not sure if PAF does actually field the 530 D version as it's said to be compactible with only Mirage-2000.
 
can you plz share date at which this pic was taken and the event.

@Bilal Khan (Quwa) , @JamD I thin in the background new target drone by PAC is on display and REK as well
I don't think it's that target drone. For reference:

had a V-tail and an intake on top. The orange craft in the background of the picture looks different. Perhaps the design has evolved into this. However, I suspect this is an entirely different off-the-shelf system.
