**Hataf-II test-fired
** ISLAMABAD, March 3: Pakistan on Saturday test-fired a short-range nuclear-capable ballistic missile, its second test within eight days, the military said.
The surface-to-surface Hataf-II Abdali has a range of 200 kms and is one of the earliest missile systems developed by Pakistan.
“The test was aimed at validation of the desired technical parameters which has been successfully achieved,” the military said in a statement.
Pakistan tested the Shaheen II, or Hatf VI, missile with a range of 2,000 kilometres on Feb 23, two days after signing a historic deal with India to cut the risk of atomic weapons accidents.
The neighbours have routinely conducted missile tests since carrying out tit-for-tat nuclear detonations in May 1998.—AFP

Why was the missile named after Ahmed Shah Abdali?

…The ONLY good thing which is missing from this news source is the fact that both countries inform each other prior to conducting any missile test ..

True, and because of him Lahore was liberated from first the Sikhs and later the Marathas following the Third Battle of Panipat.
In other words, the Muslim heritage of Lahore, Pakistan's cultural capital, was assured by Abdali.
