PM Narendra Modi will chair a high-stakes meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) on Wednesday, aiming to finalise India’s next course of action against Pakistan.
This will be the second CCS meeting held within a week following the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, which killed 26 people.
With national anger mounting over the brutal killings by suspected Pakistan-backed terrorists and repeated ceasefire violations along the Line of Control (LoC), the CCS will reportedly consider both military and strategic responses.
Officials familiar with the matter said the meeting could lead to key decisions aimed at avenging the attack and deterring future cross-border aggression.
The CCS meeting is taking place amid heightened tensions, with Pakistan denying involvement in the Pahalgam carnage and warning of a ‘strong response’ to India’s recent retaliatory steps, including suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty.
In the immediate aftermath of the attack, PM Modi chaired the first CCS meeting on April 23.
During that session, the committee announced a range of diplomatic measures designed to isolate Pakistan and signal India’s firm stance against state-sponsored terrorism.
Key decisions taken in the April 23 CCS meeting included:
The CCS noted that the Pahalgam attack aimed to disrupt Jammu and Kashmir’s development and recent successful elections.
In response, Indian security forces were directed to maintain the highest level of vigilance along sensitive zones and borders.
The Indian government remains committed to bringing the perpetrators of the Pahalgam attack to justice and holding their sponsors across the border accountable.
Officials said India’s response signals a shift toward isolating Pakistan globally unless it ends support for terrorism.
The nation awaits the CCS meeting, expecting decisive action to uphold India’s zero-tolerance policy on terrorism.
