ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif has rejected the resignation of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Senator and former law minister Azam Nazeer Tarar, ARY News reported on Tuesday.

According to details, PM Shehbaz Sharif has rejected the resignation of Tarar and instructed the PML-N senator to resume his duties from tomorrow (November 30).

A delegation of federal ministers – comprising Finance Minister Ishaq Dar, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah, Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb, Economic Affairs Minister Ayaz Sadiq and Railways Minister Saad Rafique – met the senator at his residence and conveyed the premier’s message.


After the discussion, Tarar agreed to return to the cabinet and take over the responsibilities as a Federal Law Minister again.

It is pertinent to mention here that Azam Nazeer Tarar tendered his resignation on October 25 citing personal reasons.

The Senator’s resignation came after he was spotted at the Asma Jahangir Conference where audiences chanted slogans against the institutions.

“I am disappointed the way a small group of participants behaved at AJCON22 today by unnecessarily chanting slogans against state institutions n not listing to the achievements so far made for their benefits. We must respect each other’s point of view – hallmark of democratic society,” he tweeted.

Later, Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif appointed PML-N leader Ayaz Sadiq as Minster of Law and Justice, handing him an additional portfolio apart from economic affairs.

Several videos of the anti-army sloganeering surfaced on social media, among other videos carrying speeches of judges, ministers, and others.

Floods in Pakistan have killed more than 1,000 people after what its climate change minister called a record unbroken cycle of monsoon rains with “8 weeks of non-stop torrents”. AFP explains what the monsoon is, why it is so important and yet so dangerous, and how climate change and other man-made effects may be altering the vast life-giving but destructive annual weather system. What is the South Asian monsoon? The Southwest or the Asian Summer Monsoon is essentially a colossal sea breeze that brings South Asia 70-80 percent of its annual rainfall between June and September every year.

The monsoon is vital for agriculture and therefore for the livelihoods of millions of farmers and for food security in the poor region of around two billion people. But it brings destruction every ye...

ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) on Monday removed a recently installed ‘Golden Hands’ sculpture located along Margalla Avenue in Islamabad. The artwork featured two large golden hands holding two balls like objects resembling a world map.
