HM Shah to review J-K security situation, preparations for Amarnath Yatra

Union Home Minister Amit Shah will review the security situation in Jammu and Kashmir on Sunday, sources said.

The home minister will also review the preparations for the annual Amarnath pilgrimage set to start on June 29.

Shah will chair a high-level meeting here at North Block, three days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a similar meeting where he directed officials to deploy the "full spectrum of counter-terror capabilities" after a spate of terror incidents, including an attack on a bus carrying pilgrims.

The home minister is expected to give broad guidelines to intensify counter-terror operations in Jammu and Kashmir, the sources said.
