 "Army Chief Bipin Rawat meets NSA Ajit Doval; apprises him of J&K situation")
Army Chief Gen Bipin Rawat on Sunday met National Security Advisor Ajit Doval and apprised him of the situation in the Kashmir Valley.
The meeting comes amidst a raging controversy after a video surfaced showing a man being tied to an army jeep as a shield against stone-pelters during polling for the Srinagar Lok Sabha seat.
Sources said the Army Chief, during the 30-minute-long meeting, apprised Doval of the situation in the Valley besides briefing him about the overall security scenario in the state.
The video triggered a public outcry in the Valley, prompting the civil and army authorities to launch separate investigations.
