ISLAMABAD: Leader of Opposition in National Assembly and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) senior leader Chuadhry Nisar Ali Khan Sunday announced his resignation as Chairman Public Accounts Committee (PAC).

Addressing a press conference here, he said that he has performed his duties as Chairman PAC with full devotion and commitment, adding that PML-N members of the committee would continue working.

Chaudhry Nisar said that the slot of PAC chairman is no more acceptable to PML-N.

He strongly condemned NATO forces attack on Pakistani forces and said that the government should have to demonstrate strong response.

Nisar asked Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaaf chief Imran Khan to refrain from levelling allegations against PML-N leaders, adding that if he had proofs, he must present it in the court.
