The Home Minister also joined the jawans for ‘bada khana’ at the Bobiya

Border Out Post located on the India-Pakistan border in Jammu and Kashmir.

“The ‘bada khana’ of the security forces is such a tradition of eating together that it strengthens the spirit of camaraderie among the jawans and binds them together with the thread of shared emotions like a family,” he wrote on X, while sharing some photos.

सुरक्षा बलों का ‘बड़ा खाना’ एक साथ भोजन करने की ऐसी परंपरा है, जो जवानों के बीच मैत्री भाव को बढ़ाती है और उन्हें एक परिवार की तरह संवेदना के सूत्र से जोड़ती है। आज जम्मू-कश्मीर में भारत-पाकिस्तान सीमा पर स्थित बोबिया बॉर्डर आउट पोस्ट में जवानों के साथ ‘बड़ा खाना’ में शामिल हुआ। pic.twitter.com/jQfrFBQSEP

He also chaired a security review meeting in Jammu with Army chief General Upendra Dwivedi and senior officials from the security establishment in attendance, to assess the prevailing security situation in Jammu and Kashmir, officials said.

The meeting gains significance amid intensified anti-terror operations in which four Pakistan-based terrorists linked to Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) were neutralised after nearly a dozen encounters in Kathua, Udhampur and Kishtwar districts of the Jammu region over the past two weeks.

Shah appreciated the efforts of the security agencies in dismantling the terror eco-system in Jammu and Kashmir. He said that the terror eco-system nurtured by elements inimical to our country in J&K has been almost crippled due to the concerted efforts of the Modi Government.

He reiterated unwavering commitment of the Modi government to attain the goal of terror-free Jammu and Kashmir. Innovative measures to further reinforce the watertight security cordon were also discussed in the meeting.

The Home Minister said that efforts for de-radicalisation have seen major success in accelerating our vision for a terror-free J&K. He instructed for taking more steps for youth engagement. Shah stressed that major initiatives to build up start-up ecosystem, sports sector etc. need to be taken to ensure youths are engaged in income generating activities.

Shah directed all security agencies to remain alert and continue work in a coordinated mode to ensure that the gains achieved in recent times are sustained and the goal of ‘terror free J&K’ is achieved at the earliest. He assured that all the resources will be made available in this endeavour.

Besides the Army chief, Jammu and Kashmir Lt Governor Manoj Sinha, Union Home Secretary Govind Mohan, Northern Army Commander Lt Gen Pratik Sharma, General Officer Commanding Jammu-based White Knight Corps Lt Gen P K Mishra, Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police Nalin Prabhat, Intelligence Bureau Director Tapan Deka, Border Security Force (BSF) Director General Praveen Kumar, Central Reserve Police Force DG G P Singh, and other senior military, police, civil and intelligence officers attended the meeting at the Lok Bhavan, officials said.

In a month, this is the second security review meeting chaired by Shah. On January 8, Shah chaired a high-level review meeting on Jammu and Kashmir security in Delhi, and directed continuation of counter-terror operations targeting terror infrastructure and financing in “mission mode”.

He also said that all resources would be mobilised to achieve the goal of a “terror-free” Jammu and Kashmir at the earliest.
