Nisar adamant on holding press conference against Ahsan

PM Sharif in a meeting with Chaudhry Nisar in Islamabad, had advised him not to add more fuel to his controversy with PPP Senator Aitzaz Ahsan.

Nisar has, however, postponed his press conference till this evening.

Sources said that the Interior Minister stood firm on its stance on the controversy with Aitzaz Ahsan throughout his meeting with the Prime Minister. He insisted that he will respond to the allegations of Aitzaz Ahsan during a press talk at 06:00 P.M today.

The two leaders also discussed the sit-ins of Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in Islamabad.

It should be noted that Nisar is adamant on holding the press conference by stating that Ahsan had launched a personal attack on him and his brother.

“There is a paper which I want to show during the conference”, Nisar had said.

The minister earlier had alleged that Aitzaz Ahsan is the lawyer of a land mafia group. Ahsan, during the joint session o the parliament, gave a strong reply to the allegations levelled by Nisar in a media talk.

The tussle has taken place during the time in which the pro-democratic forces including Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N), PPP, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam – Fazl (JUI-F), Jamaat-e-Islami (JI), Awami National Party (ANP), National Party (NP) and Qaumi Watan Party (QWP) are fighting for the supremacy of constitution and parliament.
