Amit Shah chairs high-level security review meeting on Jammu and Kashmir

Union Home Minister Amit Shah chaired a crucial security review meeting on Jammu and Kashmir in the national capital on Tuesday.

The discussion centered on counter-terrorism efforts and measures to maintain peace in the Union Territory. Topics included the prevailing security situation, ongoing counter-terrorism operations, and the future roadmap to curb the menace.

Lasting over two hours, the meeting emphasized the importance of coordination among security agencies in the ongoing fight against terrorism in the region. Recent security developments in the Valley, including new challenges posed by terror groups and insurgent activities, were also major points of discussion.

This marked the second consecutive security review meeting, after a similar session with Army officials on Tuesday. Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, Director General of Police Nalin Prabhat, and other relevant regional officers attended the meeting, which was also joined by Union Home Secretary Govind Mohan and the Director of the Intelligence Bureau.

This meeting follows a series of similar security reviews, where the home minister has emphasized strengthening intelligence networks, countering cross-border infiltration, and accelerating development initiatives in the region. In previous meetings, Shah has stressed a zero-tolerance policy against terrorism and called for enhanced coordination between central and state security agencies.

Over the past few years, the government has ramped up counter-terror measures, dismantled terror modules, and increased its developmental outreach in Jammu and Kashmir. The security review is crucial in light of recent incidents, ongoing anti-terror operations, and the government’s efforts to ensure long-term peace in the region.
