Chagai hills (Where nuclear tests took place)

Ignorance!
PCG! Do you its a provincial discrimination thing? Do you think they could have tested the bomb in Punjab with it being so densly populated?

Do you think that US used to test there bombs in Arizona, New mexico and Nevada because they had something against those those provinces?

Sindh, Punjab and the NWFP are too densely populated for nuclear teasting. Azad Kashmir has many unpopulated areas, but it is too close to Indian Occupied Kashmir to enable a secure and secretive test site to be built.

That just leaves Balochistan. It had many unpopulated areas, such as where the tests were carried out, and even better, it is almost as far away from India as you can get. This means that Indian Air Force reconnaissance and strike aircraft are unable to reach the Chagtai Hills of Baluchistan, whereas they can cover all of Sindh, Punjab, Azad Kashmir, and most of the NWFP.

Hence there is only one logical choice for where to locate a test site.... Balochistan.

They should test nuclear bomb on Islamabad.

Will solve 80% of our problems.

BTW, the day when rest of country celebrates "Youm-i-Takbeer" for nuclear tests, Balochis mourn it as "Balck Day". Shows you what the Army has acomplished by sowing the seeds of disunity in Pakistan since 1947. A shame.

Gudia, there do exist things in the world, other than provincialism. Believe you me.
