The Interior Secretary of Pakistan (Urdu: معتمدِ داخلہ پاکستان) is the Federal Secretary for the Ministry of Interior. As in-charge of the country's law and order machinery, the Interior Secretary is one of the most coveted and sensitive positions in the Government of Pakistan. The position holder is a BPS-22 grade officer, usually belonging to the Pakistan Administrative Service.[1][2][3]
Notable organisations that come under the control of the Interior Secretary include the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA), Directorate General of Immigration & Passports (I&P) and the paramilitary forces namely Frontier Constabulary (FC) and Pakistan Rangers.
