The nearly half-an-hour meeting took place amidst the fierce fighting between militants and security forces at a military station near Jammu in which six people were killed and 11 others were injured.
The governor apprised the home minister of the security situation in the state, particularly in border areas, which have been witnessing massive ceasefire violation by Pakistan and infiltration from across the border, a home ministry official said.
The militant attack on an army installation in Jammu figured in the meeting, the official said.

Five Army men, including two junior commissioned officers (JCOs), and the father of a soldier have been killed in the attack, an Army spokesperson said.
