Jammu: The Chief of Defence Staff General Anil Chauhan on Monday reviewed security situation and operational preparedness across the Jammu region during his day-long visit here.

Official sources said that the CDS reviewed the security situation in the Jammu region during a high level meeting at the White Knight Corps (16 Corps) based here at Nagrota.

He was briefed about the operational readiness and security scenario in the region by the top Army Commanders in the backdrop of back to back terrorist attack last week.
