Top Level Meeting on Security Begins at PM Modi’s Residence, Day After J&K Terror Attack
The meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) has begun at the residence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Delhi, a day after a heinous terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam left at least 26 tourists dead. The high-level meeting, which is being attended by Home Minister Amit Shah, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, and National Security Adviser (NSA) Ajit Doval, aims to discuss the security situation in the valley and take concrete steps to prevent such incidents in the future.
The deadly terror attack, which took place on Tuesday, saw terrorists target a bus carrying tourists in the scenic town of Pahalgam. The attack, which is being seen as one of the deadliest in recent years, has sent shockwaves across the country and has raised concerns about the security situation in Jammu and Kashmir.
The CCS meeting, which is held regularly to discuss critical security issues, is seen as a significant development in the wake of the terror attack. The meeting is expected to discuss a range of issues, including the security situation in Jammu and Kashmir, the role of intelligence agencies, and the need for enhanced coordination between different security forces.
Home Minister Amit Shah, who returned from Jammu and Kashmir this evening, is likely to brief the CCS on the situation on the ground and the steps being taken by the government to ensure the safety of tourists and locals alike. Defence Minister Rajnath Singh is also expected to share his views on the security situation and the role of the armed forces in maintaining law and order in the valley.
NSA Ajit Doval, who has been a key player in India’s counter-terrorism efforts, is likely to provide his expertise on the intelligence gathering efforts and the need for enhanced coordination between different agencies to prevent such attacks in the future.
The CCS meeting comes at a time when the country is still reeling from the aftermath of the terror attack. The attack has raised concerns about the security situation in Jammu and Kashmir, which has been facing unrest for years. The attack has also highlighted the need for enhanced security measures to prevent such incidents in the future.
The government has already taken several steps to enhance security in the valley, including the deployment of additional security forces and the tightening of intelligence gathering efforts. The CCS meeting is expected to take a comprehensive view of the situation and take concrete steps to prevent such attacks in the future.
The meeting is also likely to discuss the role of Pakistan in the wake of the terror attack. Pakistan has been accused of supporting terrorist groups operating in Jammu and Kashmir, and the government is likely to demand that Pakistan take concrete steps to prevent such attacks in the future.
In a statement, the Ministry of Home Affairs said that the government is committed to ensuring the safety and security of tourists and locals alike in Jammu and Kashmir. The government has also appealed to the people of Jammu and Kashmir to maintain peace and harmony in the wake of the terror attack.
The CCS meeting is likely to be a crucial step in the government’s efforts to ensure the security of the people of Jammu and Kashmir. The meeting is expected to take a comprehensive view of the situation and take concrete steps to prevent such attacks in the future.
