Union Home Minister Amit will address both the Houses of the Parliament today.

This comes at a time when the prevailing situation in Jammu and Kashmir continues to remain tense.

Shah will speak in Rajya Sabha at 11 am and in Lok Sabha at 12 pm.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi chaired the Union Cabinet meeting at 7 Lok Kalyan Marg today.

The key meeting was held after mobile internet services were suspended in Jammu, in view of the prevailing security situation in the region.

In Jammu, the government has imposed Section 144, which prevents the gathering of more than four in the area.
