Defense Minister Rajnath Singh meets on Monday at 7, Lok Kalyan Marg, the official residence of the prime minister. The meeting comes a day after defense staff Anil Chauhan informed the Minister of Defense about the critical decisions made to counter Pakistan in the wake of the deadly Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir.

While the tensions between the two countries have risen, it is learned that Anil Chouhan, head of the defense staff, has called on defense minister Rajnath Singh. The Pahalgam attack has been the worst terror strike on civilians in India since the attack on 26/11 Mumbai. On Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the ‘offenders and conspirators’ of the Pahalgam attack will be served ‘with the loudest reaction’. “The whole world stands with 140 Crore Indians in our fight against terrorism. I will again assure the families affected that they will get justice, and justice will be done,” Modi said in his ‘Mann Ki Benefit’ address. “The offenders and conspirators of this attack will be served with the most stringent reaction,” he said. India announced a series of criminal action against Pakistan on Wednesday, including the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, the closure of the only operational border crossing at Attari, and the downgrading of diplomatic relations, after border ties with the recent attack. In retaliation, Pakistan closed its airspace for Indian Airliners on Thursday and suspended all trade with India, including third countries. Pakistan also rejected India’s suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty and warned that any attempt to stop the flow of water would be considered a ” war weather ‘. The whole world stands with 140 Crore Indians in our fight against terrorism. (With input of agencies) (it is a developing story) first published: 28 Apr 2025, 11:21 am Ist
