Hayatabad Sports Complex at the Heart of Peshawar's Sporting Dilemma"
The Hayatabad Sports Complex in Peshawar currently stands as
the pivotal sporting hub under the auspices of the Provincial Ministry of
Sports. Operating under the Provincial Sports Directorate, it serves as a
primary revenue source, contributing approximately four to ten million rupees
annually. Conversely, the Qayyum Sports Complex, nestled in Peshawar Sadar,
remains another financial backbone for the Directorate.
As discussions brew over the future landscape of sporting
administration in Peshawar, questions arise regarding the potential bifurcation
of responsibilities. Will the Peshawar Development Authority (PDA), entrusted
with citywide development projects, establish a dedicated cricket department
akin to Shahi Bagh? Notably, various sporting venues, including the Shah Tahmas
Football Stadium and Arbab Niaz Cricket Stadium, fall within the jurisdiction
of Town One, further complicating the administrative landscape.
Moreover, looming uncertainties persist regarding the lease
status of facilities situated within Cantonment Board boundaries. Should
termination proceedings ensue, the Provincial Sports Directorate faces the
ominous prospect of dissolution, underscoring the high stakes at play in
Peshawar's sporting realm.
