The Pakistani military carried out a test firing of Abdali surface-to-surface ballistic missile on Saturday, an exercise being seen by India as a "blatant provocation" and attempt to whip up tensions, people familiar with the matter said.

NEW DELHI:

Pakistan conducted the launch of the missile, with a range of 450 km, hours after Indian authorities said that Islamabad's plan to test a ballistic missile was a "reckless act of provocation". Experts said the version of the missile tested by Pakistan has a range that is double that of previous versions of the Abdali or Hatf-II missile.

The launch, conducted at an undisclosed location, was "aimed at ensuring the operational readiness of troops" and "validating key technical parameters, including the missile's advanced navigation system and enhanced manoeuvrability features", the Inter-Services Public Relations said in a statement.
