Union Home Minister Amit Shah has arrived in Jammu and Kashmir on a 3 day visit to the Union Territory, his first visit since he stood up in the Parliament to announce the abrogation of Article 370.
Amit Shah will be chairing a high level meeting on security situation in the UT, following a sudden rise of civilian killings in Kashmir.
According to Home Ministry officials, he will chair the high-level meeting at 12.30 p.m. with heads of security and intelligence agencies at the Raj Bhawan.
The meeting will be attended by Intelligence Bureau chief Arvind Kumar, CRPF DG Kuldiep Singh, ABSF DG Pamkaj Singh, DG of National Security Guard MA Ganapathy, J&K Police ADG Dilbag Singh, Army commanders and other officials.
The Inspector-General of Jammu Police and Inspector General of Kashmir Police also will be present.
The J&K Police DG is likely to make a presentation on the recent attacks targeting minorities and non-locals in Kashmir and measures taken to prevent such incidents.
Shah will also inaugurate the first Srinagar-Sharjah international flight via video conferencing from the Raj Bhawan.
He is likely to meet the families of the victims — local pharmacists Pandit Makhan Lal Bindroo, school teacher Supinder Kaur and young sub-inspector Arshad Ahmad Mir.
On Sunday, the Home Minister will visit Jammu and is likely to meet BJP workers at the party office and then hold a public rally in Bhagwati Nagar.
