Please can you quote the source for your claims..
Besides India has multiple 200 kilotone plutonium based thermonuclear devices.
I am not sure if you know.. but beyond 200 kilotone ..destructive efficiency of a Nuclear bomb wrt to amount of fissile material used drastically reduces.
ie Amount of Damage done by 5..two hundred kilotone warheads , is much more than 1 megatone consolidated warhead..this is one of the reason why MIRV came in to existance.
India may have many more nukes than the source quoted from the Western intelligence.
The problem is that our nuke stockpile is overwhelming that is comparable to the current US stockpile.
So India doesn't hold any hope as the ballistic missiles are limited to hit in the Chinese soil, not mind that a good number of missiles would be shot down by our Anti-Missile defence.
So build up a nuke stockpile of at least 3000 before you want to talk MAD with us.
