Review meeting on security situation in Jammu and Kashmir: Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir Manoj Sinha also attended the meeting.
The Indian Army has deployed around 500 Para Special Forces commandos in the area to hunt down the 50-55 terrorists from Pakistan who have entered the region to revive terrorism there, said defence sources.
Shah chaired the high-level meeting three days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a similar meeting where he directed officials to deploy the "full spectrum of counter-terror capabilities" after a spate of terror incidents, including an attack on a bus carrying pilgrims.
The review meeting comes in the wake of back-to-back terrorist attacks in Jammu. The attack, which occurred on Sunday, caused the bus to veer off the road and fall into a deep gorge, leaving nine dead and 41 injured.
The Minister's remarks came as four Indian Army soldiers were killed in action after their vehicles were ambushed by terrorists in Poonch. Two soldiers suffered injuries in the attack.
The pledge requires all three countries to "share fundamentally interlinked security environments" and consult each other in case of security threats.
India at the United Nations has pushed for global peace and end of violence. It slammed Pakistan and urged the UN to safeguard religious sites the world over.
The Director-General of Police was accompanied by Additional Director General of CRPF Zulfikar Hassan to the meeting, a police spokesman said.
"The Maoist attack in Sukma, Chhattisgarh in which 9 CRPF jawans lost their lives is tragic. It reflects a deteriorating internal security situation due to flawed policies," tweeted Gandhi.
