PM briefs President over security scenario

Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee on Saturday spoke to President K R Narayanan on telephone and briefed him about the overall security scenario in the wake of the heightened Indo-Pak tension.

Vajpayee, who is here in this hill resort of Himachal Pradesh on a short sojourn, informed the president about his
three-day visit to Jammu and Kashmir earlier this week and
deliberations he had at a meeting of the Unified Command in
Srinagar, official sources said.

The Prime Minister also enquired about the health of Narayanan, who was away in the Nilgiris in Tamil Nadu and
Kerala for taking rest and recuperation earlier this month.
