We are in the knowledge of Pakistan having conducted one more nuclear test today.
  The development was expected. Facts are being ascertained. Government's stand
  has been made clear by Prime Minister in Parliament yesterday. As is well known,
  India is already observing a voluntary moratorium. Pakistan has sought to justify the
  nuclear tests by projecting an alleged threat from India. As Prime Minister has
  already stated, India does not pose a threat to Pakistan. The Prime Minister also
  reiterated the offer to hold discussions with Pakistan on a no-first-use agreement
  reflecting our desire to maintain peace and stability in the region. Government is
  watching the situation carefully. Government remains fully prepared to deal firmly
  and effectively with any threat to India's national security.
