‘Bomb Mumbai and Delhi’: Former Pakistan Envoy Abdul Basit Issues Provocative Threat to India.

Former Pakistan High Commissioner to India, Abdul Basit, has sparked controversy by suggesting that Pakistan should target Indian cities like Mumbai and Delhi if the United States attacks its nuclear assets. Speaking on a hypothetical escalation involving Iran, Israel, and the US, Basit stated that if Pakistan is unable to strike American bases or Israel directly, it should view India as a fallback target—even if India is not part of the conflict.

Basit further claimed that everyone in Pakistan is a “Jihadi” and would resist any foreign intervention. These remarks come shortly after a US intelligence report identified Pakistan as a significant nuclear threat to Washington, alongside Russia and China. The 2026 Annual Threat Assessment, presented by US Intelligence Chief Tulsi Gabbard, highlighted concerns over Pakistan’s development of long-range ballistic missiles capable of reaching the United States and its role in regional instability.
