Speaking to ANI, defence expert PK Sehgal said, "This statement is a clear warning, caution and recommendation to Pakistan that its game as far as terrorism is concern is up."

"They have no option but to dismantle the terrorist camps and act against each terrorists that operates on Pakistan territory," added Sehgal.
