The decision comes after the Pahargam terrorist attacks that claimed the lives of 26 innocent civilians, including a Nepali national, and injured many.
The Cabinet Security Committee (CCS) meeting convened by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at his residence ended this afternoon after the Pahargam terrorist attack.
At the CCS meeting, the Prime Minister’s residence convened two other committee meetings – the Cabinet Political Affairs Committee (CCPA) and the Cabinet Economic Affairs Committee (CCEA). A cabinet briefing is scheduled to be held at 3:00 pm this afternoon.
The second CCS meeting discussed security preparations after the Pahalgam incident.
The Cabinet Security Committee (CCS) last met on April 23 and detailed the terrorist attacks in Pahargam, in which 25 Indians and a Nepali citizen were killed.
In a briefing to CCS, cross-border links for terrorist attacks were proposed. It is worth noting that the attack was due to the successful holding of elections in the Union Territory and its stable progress in economic growth and development.
The government then announced a series of measures, including temporary holding of the Indian Moisture Treaty, to send a letter to Pakistan to support cross-border terrorism.
Earlier on Tuesday, Prime Minister Modi presided over a meeting of Defense Minister Rajnath Singh, Defense Minister Anil Chauhan and three service directors.
Sources said Prime Minister Modi expressed full confidence and confidence in the professional capabilities of the Indian armed forces. Prime Minister Modi said the Indian armed forces have complete operational freedom to determine the mode, goal and timing of India’s response.
