Governor deplores KP’s exclusion from South Asian Games 2027


Peshawar: Governor Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Faisal Karim Kundi has termed the reported exclusion of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa from the South Asian Games 2027 as regrettable, saying the move could negatively affect the province’s positive image and sports development.



He expressed these views during a meeting with Chairman Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Olympic Association and former provincial minister Aqil Shah at the Governor House.



The meeting discussed the promotion of sports, development of sports infrastructure in the province and preparations related to the South Asian Games 2027.



Aqil Shah informed the Governor about his concerns over the alleged exclusion of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa from hosting events of the South Asian Games 2027.



Governor Kundi said the Peshawar Sports Complex possessed international-standard facilities and had the capacity to successfully host various events of the regional games.



He said that while Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was confronting the challenge of terrorism, ignoring the province by the Pakistan Olympic Association was unfortunate and detrimental to promoting sports and projecting its positive image.



The Governor said holding international sporting events in Peshawar would help improve the province’s soft image and send a positive message to the world that Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was a centre of peace, sports and talented youth.



Reaffirming his commitment to sports development, Governor Kundi said promotion of sports and encouragement of young talent remained among his top priorities.



He also highlighted the ongoing initiatives under the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Champions League and assured that every possible support would be extended to expand sporting activities across the province.
