Shah stressed on the need to "strengthen the process of information sharing and enhancing liaison between counter-terrorism and anti-drug agencies" of the states.
Shah also reviewed the internal security situation in the country.
The meeting held extensive discussions on various issues related to national security, including counter terrorism, threats from extremism, cyber security related issues, border related aspects and threats from cross-border elements to the integrity and stability of the nation.

"We also have to make the country's coastal security impenetrable. For this, we should keep a close eye on even the smallest and most isolated port," he said.
Referring to the circulation of drugs, Shah said narcotics not only ruin the youth of the country but money earned from it also affects the internal security of the country, therefore everyone has to work together for its complete destruction.
