    New Delhi: Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf on Saturday denied rumours that had plans to resign and go into exile, as was being speculated by the media and his detractors.

    Addressing a press conference in Islamabad he said he had no home outside his country and was out for a confrontation with anyone in Pakistan.

    Musharraf assured he was not interested in opposing the new civilian government, but indicated he would not remain in office if he were stripped off his powers.

    The President stressed he would not be drawn on claims by Lt Gen Jamshed Gulzar Kiyani, a former ISI general, that Musharraf misled then-prime minister Nawaz Sharif on the Kargil war.

    "The Kargil operation involves national secrets and confidentialities and it cannot be debated. I don't want to talk about it. There are a lot of confidentialities which should not be violated, but he [Kiyani] has already violated them,” Musharraf said.

    The embattled President also said he would directly address disgraced nuclear scientist A Q Khan's plaint that he had been made a scapegoat. Khan had earlier hinted that the nuclear black market he was alleged to have run could not have been a one-man show.
