ISLAMABAD:
Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan on Monday said that his tenure as the country’s interior minister was the brightest and the most challenging period of his entire political career.

In a letter written to the interior secretary, Nisar said during his political career spanning over three decades, he had an opportunity to head various ministries but the present tenure was the most challenging in terms of the huge and multi-faceted challenges the country was facing.

Nisar keeps media guessing


“From the issues connected to our national security, the fight against militants to ensuring internal security and maintenance of law and order, from various administrative measures and internal reforms within our organisation to formulating new policies aimed at restoring sanctity of our laws and introducing transparency and rule of law, we had multi-dimensional tasks before us,” he wrote.

Acknowledging the services of his colleagues in the ministry, Nisar wrote, “Whatever we have been able to accomplish during this period is a matter of record. I give credit to the entire team of the ministry and its attached departments who have worked with me diligently and provided me the support in translating our vision into reality.”

Whatever the verdict, accept it, Nisar advises PM

He expressed the hope that the momentum generated during his tenure would be carried forward and each day would witness further improvement in the ability of the ministry and its attached departments towards service delivery.
