Defence Minister A K Antony today reviewed the security situation in and around the country with top security brass.
During the meeting, the three Service chiefs briefed the Defence Minister about the prevailing security situation in the country and the measures taken by the Army to tackle terrorism in Jammu and Kashmir and the northeastern areas, the ministry officials said.
The meeting was held at a time when India and Pakistan have decided to hold a meeting of their Director Generals of Military Operations (DGMOs) on December 24 to address the issue of ceasefire violations.
The meeting is also understood to have reviewed the emerging security scenario after the withdrawal of American troops from the Af-Pak region in 2014.
The Defence Minister every month reviews the security situation with the three Services chiefs and NSA Shivshankar Menon.
