Sources confirmed that NSA Doval reached South Block earlier today for what is being described as an "important strategic meeting" with the Prime Minister. The exact agenda of the meeting has not been disclosed yet, and official details remain awaited.

Security was visibly heightened in the vicinity of South Block as Doval entered the premises. The Prime Minister’s Office has not issued an official statement yet, and no media briefing has been scheduled at the time of reporting.
NSA Ajit Doval plays a central role in shaping security policies. His meetings with the Prime Minister often precede important announcements or decisions related to defence, foreign policy, or counter-terrorism initiatives.
As of now, it remains unclear whether any public communication will be made following the conclusion of the meeting. Reporters stationed outside South Block have been advised to await further instructions from the PMO communication office.
This is a developing story, and more information is expected to emerge later in the day. The full implications of the meeting, if any decisions are made or statements released, will be closely watched both within government circles and by international observers.
