"India should not forget that Pakistan has an atom bomb. Our nuclear status is not meant to remain silent," Shazia Marri said.
Pakistan Peoples Party leader Shazia Marri has threatened a nuclear war with India, news agency ANI reported quoting Bol News, a day after India strongly condemned the neighbouring country's Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto for his "uncivilised outburst" against Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
"India should not forget that Pakistan has an atom bomb. Our nuclear status is not meant to remain silent. We will not back down if the need arises," Ms Marri told reporters at a news conference in support of Mr Bhutto, ANI reported.
India yesterday blasted Mr Bhutto over his offensive personal attack on PM Modi, calling it a "new low even for Pakistan".
In a firm and unsparing condemnation of Mr Bhutto's remarks at the UN, New Delhi said Pakistan lacks the credentials to cast aspersions on India and added that "Make in Pakistan terrorism" has to stop.
