SRINAGAR: The Government of India will convene an all-party meeting tomorrow at 5 PM to deliberate on the ongoing West Asia crisis and its wider implications.
The move comes as tensions in the region enter the fourth week, with escalating hostilities affecting key global trade routes, particularly through the Strait of Hormuz.
Earlier in the day, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh chaired a high-level meeting to review the evolving security situation and assess India’s defence preparedness. The meeting was attended by top military officials, including Chief of Defence Staff Anil Chauhan, Air Chief Marshal Amar Preet Singh, Army Chief Upendra Dwivedi, Navy Chief Dinesh K Tripathi and DRDO Chairman Samir Kamat, among others.
The conflict escalated after Ali Khamenei was killed in joint strikes by the United States and Israel on February 28. In response, Iran launched retaliatory attacks on Israeli and US assets across several Gulf countries, further disrupting maritime routes and impacting global energy markets and economic stability.
