India is the only external threat for Pakistan, the military has told a senate defence committee.
General Rashad Mahmood, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Committee, briefed the committee members on Thursday, Dawn online reported on Friday.
The committee, led by Mushahid Hussain, was also informed that India had over the last couple of years purchased weapons worth $100 billion -- 80 percent of which were Pakistan-specific.
The Indian Army would be buying weapons worth another $100 billion, the report added.
The situation was particularly volatile in view of the suspended dialogue between the two countries and absence of any conflict resolution mechanism, the army official said.
India and Pakistan have fought three major wars since 1947, besides a serious military confrontation over the Kargil hills in Jammu and Kashmir in 1999.
The two militaries frequently fire shells at each other's positions on the Kashmir border.
