New Delhi: A recent report from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute says India has 12 warheads for use during peacetime. This is a deal for Indias nuclear power.
Indias Growing Nuclear Arsenal
The Stockholm International Peace Research Institute report says India now has a lot of warheads. India has been adding to its warheads. The institute thinks India has 190 warheads. Out of these 12 warheads are. Ready to use.
It’s worth noting that people used to think India kept its warheads separate from launchers when not at war. This was to prevent accidents. India did this to protect itself without any mistakes.
Why Does It Matter?
The report says India deploying its warheads doesn’t mean its nuclear policy has changed. It just means Indias warheads are ready if needed. Indias warheads being deployed shows they are now operational. Indias nuclear warheads are part of its defense. The deployment of Indias warheads is a development, for Indias nuclear capability and Indias nuclear power.
