India To Host Conclave Of Top Security Officials Of Central Asian Countries
For the first time, India will host on Tuesday a conclave of top security officials of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and Uzbekistan with a focus on the evolving security situation in Afghanistan and ways to deal with threat of terrorism emanating from that country, authoritative sources said.
The NSA-level conclave that comes around 10 months after the first India-Central Asia virtual summit is also set to deliberate on ways to boost India's connectivity with the Central Asian region among other issues, they said on Monday.
National Security Adviser Ajit Doval is likely to hold separate bilateral meetings with his visiting counterparts on the sidelines of the meet that comes amid growing concerns over the security situation in Afghanistan.
Turkmenistan's NSA would not be able to attend the meet and the country will be represented by its ambassador to India.
In November last year, India hosted a regional dialogue on the situation in Afghanistan that was attended by NSAs of Russia, Iran, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.
