📰 District Sports Office Tank: Budget Irregularities Surface in FY 2025 Despite Limited Sports Activities on Ground

musarrat ullah jan -
  Musarrat Ullah Jan , KikxNow , Digital Creator The District Sports Office Tank has come under scrutiny in the financial year 2025 as official figures reveal significant budget discrepancies, unusually high expenditures, and questions regarding the actual level of sports promotion in the district. According to the financial data, the office was allocated an original budget of Rs. 11.26 million, while Rs. 9.32 million was released during the fiscal year. However, total expenditure surged to approximately Rs. 15.60 million, resulting in a deficit of nearly Rs. 6.27 million. A major portion of the expenditure was incurred under salaries and allowances. Alarmingly, several salary-related heads show zero released budget, yet full expenditures were recorded, pointing toward serious issues in budget documentation and financial management practices. In addition, under the “To Others” category, an amount of Rs. 7,062,500 forms a significant share of the total expenditure. This rais...

Dismissal of Coaches in Charsadda: Anti-Sports Policy, Administrative Negligence, or Political Interference?

musarrat ullah jan -
  Musarrat Ullah Jan , KikxNow , Digital Creator The recent dismissal of sports staff in Charsadda is not merely an employment issue involving a few daily wage workers. It reflects a deeper crisis in the district’s sports administration, exposing weak priorities, poor governance, and a disturbing disregard for the development of sports at the grassroots level. On April 10, the district administration removed 11 daily wage employees from the sports department. On the surface, it may appear to be a routine administrative decision, but the circumstances surrounding the dismissals raise serious concerns about the direction in which the district’s sports structure is heading. Among those dismissed were four coaches responsible for hockey, football, and badminton training, individuals who had been serving the district for the last thirteen years. These coaches may not have held permanent government positions, but in practical terms they were the backbone of local sports development. ...

KP Taekwondo Association Positions Challenged in Peshawar Local Court

musarrat ullah jan -
  Musarrat Ullah Jan , KikxNow , Digital Creator The recent appointments and election process of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Taekwondo Association have been challenged in a local court in Peshawar . According to the petition filed by waqar Afridi in the court of Civil Judge Sadia Ibrahim , the constitution approved by the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Olympic Association allows only the positions of President, Vice President, Joint Secretary, and Executive Members within the association. However, the recent elections introduced additional positions of Patron and Chairman , which the petitioner claims are unconstitutional. The petition further alleges that the individual appointed as Vice President from Swat is already serving as an office-bearer in the swimming association, while the Secretary selected from Abbottabad is also serving as Secretary of the wrestling association. According to the petitioner, holding positions in two separate sports associations is a violation of the rules. ...

Bodybuilding Controversy Exposes Institutional Failure: KP Government Funding, PSB Restrictions, and the Silence of Sports Authorities

musarrat ullah jan -
  Musarrat Ullah Jan,KikxNow,Digital Creator Pakistan’s sports governance system has once again come under serious scrutiny after the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government approved a special grant-in-aid for a national bodybuilding championship, despite the fact that the Pakistan Sports Board had already declared the bodybuilding body associated with Tariq Pervaiz as unrecognized. The issue raises major concerns not only about the use of public funds but also about weak enforcement, institutional contradictions, and the lack of accountability among Pakistan’s sports authorities. On April 4, 2026, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Government cabinet approved several sports-related measures, including a special grant for a bodybuilding championship held in Peshawar. However, the official cabinet statement did not specify which organization was behind the event. This omission became significant because only months earlier the Pakistan Sports Board had issued an official circular stating that the “Pa...

Tariq Pervaiz Rejects Restrictions, Defends Bodybuilding Event Amid Recognition Dispute

musarrat ullah jan -
  Musarrat Ullah Jan , KikxNow , Digital Creator Amid an ongoing dispute over the recognition status of a bodybuilding body, Tariq Pervaiz has strongly defended his position, insisting that no authority can stop his group from continuing its activities and participation in sports events. Responding to concerns raised after the Pakistan Sports Board declared the bodybuilding body linked to him as unrecognized, Tariq Pervaiz said that such restrictions would make no sense if his athletes are still able to participate in national competitions. “No one can stop us. If we are banned, then how can we participate in the National Games under PSB?” he said while defending the legitimacy of his organization. Tariq Pervaiz also downplayed the scale of the recently held bodybuilding event in Peshawar, while at the same time emphasizing the strength of his support network. “It was not such a big event, but all departments are with us, and we have been associated with bodybuilding for ...

KP Government Grant for Bodybuilding Event Raises Questions Amid PSB Warning

musarrat ullah jan -
  Musarrat Ullah Jan , KikxNow , Digital Creator Questions are being raised over the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government’s decision to approve a special grant-in-aid for a bodybuilding championship after it emerged that the Pakistan Sports Board had already issued clear instructions regarding a disputed bodybuilding body linked to Tariq Pervaiz. On 4 April 2026, the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Government cabinet approved funding for a National Bodybuilding Championship held in Peshawar. However, the official press release did not disclose the organizers or the affiliated federation responsible for the event. In contrast, the Pakistan Sports Board had issued a circular on 27 June 2025 stating that the “Pakistan Bodybuilding Federation” associated with Tariq Pervaiz is not recognized and has no legal authority to represent bodybuilding at the national level. This raises a key question: whether the event funded by the provincial government was connected to the same unrecognized group or not....
