Nisar defends NADRA chairman sackingISLAMABAD: Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan has said that termination of NADRA chairman’s contract has nothing to do with verification of votes through thumb impressions.
Addressing a press conference here on Sunday, the minister accused NADRA chairman of forming groups in his department and said that he had also gone on foreign visit without any permission.
Nisar said that he would not speak about Malik until court orders were issued on his case.
He said that magnetic ink was not used in the polling, adding that the FIA would take action if the Election Commission of Pakistan identified irregularities.
The minister said that he was ready to get a case registered over irregularities in Karachi during election if the electoral body intended to guide him on the matter. “I am assigning verification of thumb impressions to the ECP for the next three months,” he added.
To a question, he said that he had never claimed credit for Karachi situation.
