Chaudhry Nisar’s press conference raises more questions than answers

The entire nation was eagerly awaiting what Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar had to say about his future plans in the much awaited news conference which was due to take place on Monday. However, due to the Lahore blast, the Interior Minister did not shed light on the real agendas of the presser, rather he decided to postpone the matter in light of the current situation.

The press conference was just 10-minute long, and it did not answer the questions which people had regarding Nisar’s take on the government’s handling of the post-JIT report submission.

Nisar said that even though the press conference was important for him, he did not feel right to discuss ‘political matters’ in light of the blast which had taken place just half an hour ago in Lahore.

During the press conference, Nisar looked visibly unwell as he suffered from severe backache issues. He said that he was not feeling well on Sunday because of which he had to postpone his press conference.

A chair with lower-back cushion had been arranged for the interior minister, but he preferred to stand behind the rostrum during the press conference. “I may stand for a while [due to the backache] and standing [in this condition] is comparatively comfortable,” he said.

According to reports, Nisar has been very unhappy about how the government has handled the post-JIT report situation. He missed important meetings which were held to discuss the tactics which the government might use to deal with the current situation.

“I thought I’d relieve myself of my misery when I got here [Punjab House] at 1pm but half an hour ago I received news of the Lahore blast. This press conference was very important for me but after this incident it is not possible to talk on political issues and you will also agree with me,” he said.

“I am not cancelling my press conference but postponing it for the time being,” he said, adding that there were issues he wanted to speak about and that he might discuss them in a couple of days.

“I have been watching a lot of things on TV [channels]. I will request you to avoid guessing game. Things will be clear when I speak to you on these issues,” he advised the media.
