Which one among India and Pakistan have most devastating Nuclear Weapons?

India and Pakistan are among the Non-NPT Nuclear Weapons Possessors: India and Pakistan never joined the NPT and are known to possess nuclear weapons. Claiming its nuclear program was for peaceful purposes, India first tested a nuclear explosive device in 1974. That test spurred Pakistan to ramp up work on its secret nuclear weapons program. India and Pakistan both publicly demonstrated their nuclear weapon capabilities with a round of tit-for-tat nuclear tests in May 1998. The following arsenal estimates are based on the amount of fissile material-highly enriched uranium and plutonium - that each of the states is estimated to have produced. Fissile material is the key element for making nuclear weapons. India is believed to use plutonium in their weapons, while Pakistan is thought to use highly enriched uranium. India: Up to 100 nuclear warheads. Pakistan: Between 70 to 90 nuclear warheads. Hence, comparatively India's Nuclear Weapons are more devastating than Pakistan. Lets hope none of the countries ever use them to destruct mankind!
