PM Modi Chairs CCPA Today (X/@Indian_Analyzer)
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will chair a crucial meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs (CCPA) today, in the midst of heightened security concerns following the Pahalgam terror attack which left 26 dead. The meeting follows a meeting of the Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS), which had sanctioned non-military options against Pakistan.
The meeting of the CCPA has stirred up a great deal of interest, especially post-Pulwama attack of 2019, when it led to Pakistan's Most Favoured Nation status being withdrawn. The meeting is likely to hold discussions on probable retaliatory steps against Pakistan as well as solutions to deal with the security concerns in the area. The CCS had already greenlit a plethora of non-military actions against Pakistan, including suspending the Indus Waters Treaty, closing the Attari border, and revoking visas.

The committee also has allied party ministers. The mixed nature of the CCPA guarantees that different points of view are represented and taken into consideration during decision-making.
The CCPA meeting can consider possible retaliatory actions against Pakistan, such as diplomatic and economic steps. The meeting can also consider plans to deal with the security issues in the region, including steps to avert future terrorist attacks. The government's reaction to the Pahalgam attack will be watched closely, and the CCPA's actions will have important consequences for India-Pakistan relations.

The CCPA meeting can consider possibilities of pressuring Pakistan to act against terrorist groups based out of its territory. The government's line of action will be determined by the necessity of keeping diplomatic efforts in view while keeping the necessity of safeguarding national security.
The CCPA meeting led by PM Modi will be a high-profile event following the Pahalgam attack. The session will address critical issues concerning national security, diplomacy, and economic policy.
