PESHAWAR, Pakistan: New Director General Abdul Nasir Khan officially assumed his responsibilities at the Provincial Sports Directorate.

On his first day in office, staff members from various departments convened to welcome him and provide a comprehensive briefing on their ongoing activities.

Subsequently, Abdul Nasir Khan, accompanied by the Director of Sports for the mixed districts, Pir Abdullah, conducted a thorough inspection of different sections within the sports directorate. During this visit, he gained insights into the existing sports facilities.

On the inaugural day of his tenure, DG Sports Abdul Nasir Khan held a meeting with the Secretary of Sports, following his interactions with the staff. Notably, the previous Director General of Sports, Khalid Mehmood, had served seven months in the Sports Directorate before relocating to the Peshawar Development Authority.

Khalid Mehmood's focus during his term primarily centered around badminton, football, and swimming, activities in which he and his children actively participated. However, his attention to other sports was relatively minimal.

Following Abdul Nasir Khan's appointment as the new Director General, officers and officials within the Sports Directorate eagerly sought to establish connections with him. Some officers went to great lengths to demonstrate their affiliations with the Director General in hopes of garnering attention from their colleagues.

It is noteworthy that Miss Rashida Ghaznavi, the female director of the Provincial Sports Directorate, who holds a Grade 20 position, has filed a case in the Peshawar High Court. The case pertains to issues related to the service structure, including gender-based considerations. Miss Ghaznavi is seeking legal intervention for her appointment as DG Sports.

This development mirrors similar occurrences in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, where the Population Department and the Information Department witnessed protests against appointments from outside their respective departments. In response, senior officials within these departments were appointed to address concerns and maintain internal cohesion.

  Constituencies associated with sports appealed to the caretaker chief minister including Governor Ghulam Ali to take notice. PESHAWAR ... The circles related to sports have demanded an inquiry into the various contracts given in the sports sector during the PTI regime and have said that a transparent inquiry should be made into all the contracts given by the Provincial Sports Directorate of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Similarly, the contracts given for the purchase of sports equipment, including the hockey grounds built in the 1000 sports facilities project, including the squash courts built in various colleges, should also be checked so that not only the element of transparency is brought out, they also made the contract in the form of color.
