The CCS, which comprises of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, Home Minister Rajnath Singh and External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj is likely to meet before the union cabinet meet, said sources.

The attack at an Army camp in Uri on Sunday left 18 soldiers dead. Four terrorists who were killed were carrying food and medicine packets with Pakistan markings on it and preliminary investigation suggested the terrorists are from the Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammad.

As a practice, the Indian Army's Director General of Military Operations will also be handing over documents proving Pakistan's involvement in the attack to his Pakistani counterpart.
