Lahore, Dec 25 : Pakistan's Punjab province Chief minister Shahbaz Sharif has said his country was a nuclear power, which is deterring India from attacking it.

He said that if Pakistan was not a nuclear power then India would have attacked it, adding that the defence of the country is undefeated and no one can look with evil intentions.

Shahbaz Sharif said that India is directly involved in the Balochistan events.

Addressing at a Christmas ceremony in Lahore, the Chief Minister said that Pakistan is an atomic power and the services of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Nawaz Sharif in making Pakistan a nuclear power are commendable.

He said that the whole world has tried to let down Pakistan alone in the Mumbai terror attacks.

If India provides solid evidence then we are ready to extend our fullest cooperation to it, The News quoted him, as saying. (ANI)
