Barely a few weeks after Pakistanâs humiliating defeat in the Bangladesh conflict of December 1971, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto convened a meeting in Multan with close aides and nuclear experts. Bhutto announced he was determined never to allow India to repeat what it had done in Bangladesh. He said that given the immense conventional superiority India would continue to wield, Pakistan had no option but to develop nuclear weapons. <b>But Pakistanâs nuclear programme never had an exclusively Indian dimension. Writing his memoirs in his prison cell while awaiting the gallows, Bhutto stated that if he had not been overthrown he would have put the âIslamic Civilisationâ at par with the âHindu, Christian and Jewish Civilisationsâ by giving the âIslamic Civilisationâ a âfull nuclear capabilityâ. </b>
