The meeting, to be inaugurated by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, will also focus on strengthening of counter terrorism and intelligence capabilities, strengthening the border and coastal security.

The conference assumes importance against the backdrop of the proactive policy being pursued by the government to combat naxalism, increased infiltration attempts from across Indo-Pak border and the success of anti-terror measures in the past six to eight months.
