No National or Provincial Players Despite Sports Activities in Tor Ghar

Peshawar: Questions are being raised regarding the effectiveness of sports development initiatives in Tor Ghar. According to a report issued by the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Sports Directorate, the District Sports Office (DSO) Tor Ghar has six designated posts, of which four are currently filled, while two positions remain vacant. Furthermore, the office has no contract employees.

The report reveals that in the fiscal year 2023-24, a budget of 1.5 million rupees was allocated for sports activities, and 33 sports events were conducted. Despite these efforts, not a single player of national or provincial level emerged from these initiatives. In the fiscal year 2024-25, the DSO received 0.9 million rupees over eight months, during which 19 sports events were organized. Yet again, no notable player was produced from these activities.

Interestingly, the DSO Tor Ghar has only one registered sports association, and there is no record of any registered club. Though several tournaments were held, they failed to achieve the primary goal of player development.

Despite holding numerous sports events, the Tor Ghar District Sports Office failed to produce a single national or provincial athlete. While funds were utilized, the primary objective of nurturing talent and developing skilled players was not achieved.

There is an urgent need for the government to evaluate the performance of the Tor Ghar Sports Directorate. If funds are being allocated for the promotion of sports, their proper utilization and efforts towards player development are essential.

  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.
