New Delhi: The Cabinet Committee on Security met here on Wednesday as tension continues at the India-Pakistan border.
The meeting was chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Pakistan has insisted that there was no strike by India even as its Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has called a cabinet meeting on Friday.
As the tensions have heightened, Modi is expected to assess the situation on the ground, sources said.
Situation has been tense at India-Pakistan border since the September 18 attack at an army camp in Uri town of Jammu and Kashmir which left 19 soldiers dead. India blamed Pakistan based Jaish-e-Mohammad militant group for the attack.
India carried out surgical strikes on seven terror launch pads across the LoC on the intervening night of September 28 and 29, with the Army saying it had inflicted ‘significant casualties’ on terrorists preparing to infiltrate from PoK, days after Modi warned Uri attack would not go unpunished.
