<P> The Kahuta Project started under the supervision of a coordination board that oversaw the activities of KRL and PAEC . The Board consisted of AGN Kazi (secretary general, finance), Ghulam Ishaq Khan (secretary general, defence), and Agha Shahi (secretary general, foreign affairs), and reported directly to Bhutto . Ghulam Ishaq Khan and General Tikka Khan appointed military engineer Major General Ali Nawab to the program . Eventually, the supervision passed to Lt General Zahid Ali Akbar Khan in President General Muhammad Zia - ul - Haq's Administration . Moderate uranium enrichment for the production of fissile material was achieved at KRL by April 1978 . </P> <P> Pakistan's nuclear weapons development was in response to the loss of East Pakistan in 1971's Bangladesh Liberation War . Bhutto called a meeting of senior scientists and engineers on 20 January 1972, in Multan, which came to known as "Multan meeting". Bhutto was the main architect of this programme, and it was here that Bhutto orchestrated nuclear weapons programme and rallied Pakistan's academic scientists to build the atomic bomb in three years for national survival . </P> <P> At the Multan meeting, Bhutto also appointed Munir Ahmad Khan as chairman of PAEC, who, until then, had been working as director at the nuclear power and Reactor Division of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), in Vienna, Austria . In December 1972, Abdus Salam led the establishment of Theoretical Physics Group (TPG) as he called scientists working at ICTP to report to Munir Ahmad Khan . This marked the beginning of Pakistan's pursuit of nuclear deterrence capability . Following India's surprise nuclear test, codenamed Smiling Buddha in 1974, the first confirmed nuclear test by a nation outside the permanent five members of the United Nations Security Council, the goal to develop nuclear weapons received considerable impetus . </P> <P> Finally, on 28 May 1998, a few weeks after India's second nuclear test (Operation Shakti), Pakistan detonated five nuclear devices in the Ras Koh Hills in the Chagai district, Balochistan . This operation was named Chagai - I by Pakistan, the underground iron - steel tunnel having been long - constructed by provincial martial law administrator General Rahimuddin Khan during the 1980s . The last test of Pakistan was conducted at the sandy Kharan Desert under the codename Chagai - II, also in Balochistan, on 30 May 1998 . Pakistan's fissile material production takes place at Nilore, Kahuta, and Khushab Nuclear Complex, where weapons - grade plutonium is refined . Pakistan thus became the seventh country in the world to successfully develop and test nuclear weapons . Although, according to a letter sent by A.Q. Khan to General Zia, the capability to detonate a nuclear bomb using highly enriched uranium as fissile material produced at KRL had been achieved by KRL in 1984 . </P>
