  • PM Modi chairs high-level meeting with Rajnath Singh, Jaishankar; CDS and tri-services chiefs present


New Delhi, 11 May 

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday held a meeting with Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, and tri-services chiefs at his 7, Lok Kalyan Marg residence in New Delhi.
National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and Chief of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan were also present at the meeting.
The meeting comes after days of heightened tension with Pakistan along the western border, following 'Operation Sindoor' carried out by the Indian Armed Forces on 7 May. The operation targeted nine terror infrastructures in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) in retaliation for the 22 April Pahalgam attack, which claimed the lives of 26 tourists.

Meanwhile, India and Pakistan have worked out an understanding on the stoppage of firing and military action, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said on Saturday and noted that India will continue its firm and uncompromising stance against terrorism.
"India and Pakistan have today worked out an understanding on the stoppage of firing and military action. India has consistently maintained a firm and uncompromising stance against terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. It will continue to do so," he said in a post on X.
The minister's remarks came after DGMOs of India and Pakistan agreed that both sides would stop all firing and military action.
Earlier, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri told the media that Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations contacted his Indian counterpart on Saturday afternoon.
"Pakistan's Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) called the Indian DGMO at 5:35pm  earlier this afternoon. It was agreed between them that both sides would stop all firing and military action on land and in the air and sea with effect from 5.00pm Indian Standard Time," he said.
"Today, instructions have been given on both sides to give effect to this understanding. The Directors General of Military Operations will talk again on the 12 May at 12.00pm," he added.
However, India said on Saturday that Pakistan had violated the understanding reached between DGMOs of the two countries earlier in the day on the stoppage of firing and military action, and that the Indian Army retaliated and dealt with the border intrusions.
At a special briefing, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said this is a breach of the understanding arrived at earlier today and India takes "very serious note of these violations".
