Addressing a joint press conference with the ISPR spokesman, Major General Athar Abbas here, Kaira asserted that Zardari's statement was reported out of context, and what he really meant was that there was 'no immediate threat of war'.

"We will not only raise the issue but will also take an appropriate action when a solid evidence is in hand. The government is behaving responsibly," The Dawn quoted Kaira, as saying.

Kaira also ruled out any possibility of shifting its troops from the eastern Indian border to the western border with Afghanistan.

"We cannot and will not do it. Pakistan could not remain oblivious to the conventional threat," he said. (ANI)
