Federal Government has reappointed Senator Azam Nazeer Tarar as Minister of Law and Justice. A notification to this effect was issued by the cabinet division on Wednesday. It is worth mentioned here that Azam Nazeer Tarar stepped down as the law minister last month citing personal reasons after which the federal government appointed Sardar Ayaz Sadiq in his place, handing him the additional portfolio apart from economic affairs. After over a month, the PM asked federal ministers to ask Tarar to continue serving as the law minister and that he would not accept his resignation.

The federal ministers, including Ishaq Dar, Sardar Ayaz Sadiq, Rana Sanaullah, Khawaja Saad Rafique and Marriyum Aurangzeb, met with the senator at his residence and conveyed the prime minister’s message. After discussion with the federal ministers, Tarar spoke to his bar colleagues. Following his conversation with them, the PMLN leader decided to return to the cabinet.
