Azam Nazeer Tarar, the federal law minister, resigned from his post on Monday.
He claimed personal reasons for his resignation from his post in the federal cabinet.
The unexpected action comes at a crucial time for the federal government, which is still involved in a number of legal disputes, including a crucial reference in the Reko Diq case, in addition to playing a significant role in the Judicial Council’s selection of new Supreme Court of Pakistan judges.
“However, due to personal reasons, I am unable to discharge my duties as the federal minister.”
“I am unhappy that a tiny group of people yelled chants against state institutions at the Asma Jahangir conference,” Nazeer Tarar had written in a tweet before he submitted his resignation.
He claimed that those who were using emotive sloganeering had forgotten the sacrifices and hardships of governmental policies and institutions. Everyone in this room wants Pakistan to be strong and healthy, he continued.
It was discovered that the federal minister had submitted his resignation after he expressed his sincere remorse.
