to make public his political differences with the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leadership as he has been assured that no change in the chain of command of the federal government will be made against his wishes.</p><p class="">A senior official of the PML-N told <em>Dawn</em> on Tuesday that the change of heart came when Finance Minister Ishaq Dar called on Chaudhry Nisar and assured him that no minister “junior to” him (the interior minister) would be nominated as prime minister in case Nawaz Sharif is disqualified by the Supreme Court in the Panama Papers case.</p><p class="">The official, privy to the development, said that Chaudhry Nisar had differed with the prime minister over plan of appointing any other minister than the interior minister as the “stopgap arrangement” if he (Mr Sharif) was disqualified.</p><p class="">He quoted Ch Nisar as saying that being opposition leader in the previous tenure of the National Assembly and being senior than his cabinet colleagues (for he has been in the federal cabinet since 1990) he has the first right to replace PM Nawaz.</p><p class="">He said the politician from Chakri was ready to forgo his right only for Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif and threatened to resign from the cabinet otherwise.</p><p class="">The interior minister, who had also reportedly been against the way the government had fought the Panama case, had twice invited the media to announce his decision but deferred it in the last two days.</p><p class=""><em>Published in Dawn, July 26th, 2017</em></p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div>

As a presumably powerful Interior Minister he had a role to play in the cleansing of the rotten state of affairs of the Government, in differentiating between State, Government, Party and Individuals. With the powerful FIA under him and working with the Judiciary and the Intelligence agencies, both civil and military, he could have initiated and propelled change and accountability from within the Government. But perhaps this was expecting too much from a person with a feudal background and an inflated amour-propre to boot. History is full those who could have, should have, would have but when the opportunity called, they were found wanting.</p> </div> <div class=""> <input type="button" value="Reply" data-name="Syed Ahmed" class="button button--short mr-2 comment__reply"/> <div class="button button--social" title="Recommend this comment">  <span class="button__label votejs__cast" data-vote-key="1347733/up-5116603">Recommend</span> <span class="button__count votejs__count" data-vote-key="1347733/up-5116603">0</span>  </div> </div> </div>  </div>  </div>  <div class="comment pb-4 mb-4 border--bottom" id="5116610" data-id="10"> <div class="grid"> <div class="grid__item nine-tenths"> <div class="comment__author float-left">Tahir</div> <div class="timeago comment__date" title="2017-07-26T08:57:01+05:00"><span class="timestamp--time timeago" title="2017-07-26T08:57:01+05:00">Jul 26, 2017 08:57am</span></div> <div class="comment__body mt-2 clearfix"><p>The man is talking about merit</p> </div> <div class=""> <input type="button" value="Reply" data-name="Tahir" class="button button--short mr-2 comment__reply"/> <div class="button button--social" title="Recommend this comment">  <span class="button__label votejs__cast" data-vote-key="1347733/up-5116610">Recommend</span> <span class="button__count votejs__count" data-vote-key="1347733/up-5116610">0</span>  </div> </div> </div>  </div>  </div>  <div class="comment pb-4 mb-4 border--bottom" id="5116654" data-id="11"> <div class="grid"> <div class="grid__item nine-tenths"> <div class="comment__author float-left">Xeeshan</div> <div class="timeago comment__date" title="2017-07-26T09:16:03+05:00"><span class="timestamp--time timeago" title="2017-07-26T09:16:03+05:00">Jul 26, 2017 09:16am</span></div> <div class="comment__body mt-2 clearfix"><p>@Dare So abundance of principles of PTI dictate to induct leftovers from other political parties and ditch your own ideological workers.meanwhile appointing an ex PPP minister as your CM in KP and presenting him as an all time saint</p> </div> <div class=""> <input type="button" value="Reply" data-name="Xeeshan" class="button button--short mr-2 comment__reply"/> <div class="button button--social" title="Recommend this comment">  <span class="button__label votejs__cast" data-vote-key="1347733/up-5116654">Recommend</span> <span class="button__count votejs__count" data-vote-key="1347733/up-5116654">0</span>  </div> </div> </div>  </div>  </div>  <div class="comment pb-4 mb-4 border--bottom" id="5116659" data-id="12"> <div class="grid"> <div class="grid__item nine-tenths"> <div class="comment__author float-left">A.</div> <div class="timeago comment__date" title="2017-07-26T09:18:20+05:00"><span class="timestamp--time timeago" title="2017-07-26T09:18:20+05:00">Jul 26, 2017 09:18am</span></div> <div class="comment__body mt-2 clearfix"><p>@Dare you will do the same if you get the chance.</p> </div> <div class=""> <input type="button" value="Reply" data-name="A." class="button button--short mr-2 comment__reply"/> <div class="button button--social" title="Recommend this comment">  <span class="button__label votejs__cast" data-vote-key="1347733/up-5116659">Recommend</span> <span class="button__count votejs__count" data-vote-key="1347733/up-5116659">0</span>  </div> </div> </div>  </div>  </div>  <div class="comment pb-4 mb-4 border--bottom" id="5116678" data-id="13"> <div class="grid"> <div class="grid__item nine-tenths"> <div class="comment__author float-left">Muhammad </div> <div class="timeago comment__date" title="2017-07-26T09:29:03+05:00"><span class="timestamp--time timeago" title="2017-07-26T09:29:03+05:00">Jul 26, 2017 09:29am</span></div> <div class="comment__body mt-2 clearfix"><p>Sorry Ch Nisar you disappointed the nation..I thought you were one rare man with principles within PML-N.
