    The former Pakistan President accused India of adopting double standards on terrorism.
     
    "You (India) cannot say your terrorist is a terrorist but our terrorist is not a terrorist," he said.
     
    Musharraf also denied any Pakistan Army role in the Uri attack on Sunday, and warned of consequences in case of any militray strike against Pakistan.
     
    "You (India) should also be prepared for what would follow (if Indian army strikes)," he said.
