He added that the conference, known as the country’s thought machine, pools the strategies of all the agencies to devise the most effective operational plan to end terror.
The key focus of the conference is on developing synergies among various stakeholders by establishing formal and informal channels for coordinated action against the menace of terrorism in the spirit of the ‘Whole of Government approach’.
The conference is a meeting point for operational forces, technical, legal, and forensic experts, and agencies engaged in counter terrorism for deliberations on issues impacting national security and threats emerging out of terrorism.
