US warns Pak not to conduct terror attack during Obama's India visit, Reactions flow

New Delhi, Jan 19 (ANI): The United States has reportedly warned Pakistan not to conduct any terror attacks during US President Barack Obama's three day visit to India. Obama will be the Chief Guest at Republic Day celebration on January 26 at India Gate. Security Expert Major General (Retired) SR Sinho said that it is a wrong message by US as it has only warned Pak for the three days of Obama visit, instead it should have given a general warning in the nation's interest. Sinho added that the investigation agencies of US are scared, but India is a strong nation and it can take care of its guests' security. Congress leader PC Chacko and AAP leader Ashutosh said that Pakistan is a terrorist state and it is now known worldwide. Jan 19, 2015
