Provincial Hockey Association President Syed Zahir Shah urged the KP government to increase the annual grants to various sports associations and release them in time. He said sports raise Pakistan's flags high; he requested the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to release grants to all the associations so that their activities can resume. Speaking with scribes in Peshawar, Syed Zahir Shah said that no funds had been set aside for the last three to four years which had severely affected sports activities.

He further stated that the province and its people were once under stress, but the Horse and Cattle Show and lance games arranged by the Chief Minister have helped uplift the public's spirits. He further added that such programs should be held two or three times a year to entertain the general public as well as revive sports activities.

Syed Zahir Shah of Pakistan supposed that sports hoisted the Pakistan flag and such new entrants in the arena as Arshad Nadeem put one's head high in pride. He said, When the provincial Sports Board was there, associations were encouraged, whereas after the formation of the Sports Directorate, the concern for sports faded away.

He summoned the Chief Minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Ali Amin Gandapur, to enhance sports activities through more funds, bringing out new sports heroes to reactivate sports activities in the province.
