Interior minister Chaudhry Nisar Saturday (today) said that he had decided to resign over allegations of his political rivals following Supreme Court’s report on Quetta hospital carnage.
While addressing the press conference in Islamabad he said, “I went to the prime minister to tell him that I wanted to resign from my position but was told not to do so.”
On Friday, following a judicial commission’s damning report on the August 8 Quetta carnage, opposition Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) lawmakers demanded that the interior minister is removed from his post.
On December 16, the PPP also submitted an adjournment motion against Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan in the National Assembly Secretariat, claiming that the interior minister was incapable of playing a role in combating terrorism.
The one-man commission report released by the Supreme Court on Thursday pointed out the ‘monumental failure’ of the interior ministry to combat terrorism.
Based on investigations into the Quetta incident in which 70 people, most of them lawyers, were killed, the report said Nisar ‘displayed little sense of ministerial responsibility’ and that there was a continued delay on part of his ministry to take steps against militant groups and proscribed organisations.
