At the same time, the welcome went ahead, the Deputy Prime Minister resumed his duties and welcomed the visiting delegation. Social media has since shared the incident as well and people expressed relief that no harm was done.
There are no health concerns in the fall, as officials say, but to this point it seems to have been an inadvertent slip but it did not turn to be serious. Even though these instances occur rarely because they occur so rarely in high-profile diplomatic settings, they are all the more illustrative of the unpredictability of live-and-seen public events.
This month, Ishaq Dar, a senior political figure in Pakistan, has been engaged in both diplomacy and economic activities during the last few months. A quick recovery as a result of the fall will also help to keep things moving into the next phase.
