"India has been strongly warned by Pakistan in case of any misadventure," said the spokesperson, adding that India should expect a fitting response from Pakistan if the former resorts to any aggression.

"I hold a position of responsibility. I am aware of what I am saying and know that it will be noticed by the international media. We had reliable intelligence that India is devising a new plan. There are chances of another attack against Pakistan," the minister said.

Relations between Pakistan and India got tense after a suicide attack in Indian-controlled Kashmir killed at least 40 Indian security personnel on Feb 14. Following the suicide attack, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi said India will give "a befitting reply" to Pakistan.
Later on Feb 26, Indian warplanes violated Pakistani airspace and claimed to hit a training camp of Jaish-e-Mohammad, a Kashmiri militant organization allegedly involved in the suicide attack.
Pakistan announced that it have shot down two Indian fighter jets for violation of its territory a day later and arrested an Indian pilot who was released later as a gesture of peace.
