Islamabad: PML-N Senator Azam Nazeer Tarar is set to become Law and Justice Minister once again at request of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.

Tarar stepped down as Law Minister last month citing "personal reasons" after which federal government appointed Sardar Ayaz Sadiq in his place, handing him an additional portfolio apart from economic affairs. After over a month's time, PM Shehbaz asked ministers to ask Tarar to continue serving as Law Minister and that he would not accept his resignation.

Ministers including Sadiq, Rana Sanaullah, Khawaja Saad Rafique, Marriyum Aurangzeb and Ishaq Dar met Senator at his residence and informed him about Prime Minister's message. After discussion, Tarar spoke to his bar group. Following his conversation with them, PML-N leader decided to return to Cabinet.
