"Islamic Republic of Pakistan"

"Islamic Republic of Pakistan" which we could not make till today Happy Independence Day to all of you.


Let's talk about the world of sports today in Pakistan. There was a time when this country was known for the national sports of hockey, cricket and squash. The story of the rise and fall of these three sports is quite painful. I still remember the 1994 World Cup hero goalkeeper Mansoor who made us happy by stopping a goal in the final, when he was in hospital suffering from a terminal illness and there was no one to ask except a few friends and then he died. And then slowly, our "hockey" also

Do you remember Naseem Hameed from Korangi area of  ​​Krachi, whose father was also a laborer and that girl probably got silver medal for Pakistan in Safe Games with her hard work and what was celebrated. What did our rulers promise to him? Hardly any promise made to her was fulfilled, then she came under the attack of poor accusations like Goalkeeper Mansoor, who was also jailed for drugs and he himself used to tell how the net was prepared against him.

Has anyone ever taken any accounting from Pakistan Football Federation? May Allah protect our hero "Arshad Nadeem" from the "Nazarbad" of these "hypocrites", otherwise Ghulam Haider Wayan, who belongs to the same backward area of ​​Mian Chanu, was made the Chief Minister of Punjab. It was not accepted, later he was killed by unknown persons and if no one, at least the Lahore Press Club, at least remind him that all the credit for making that club belongs to him. They wanted to give money to build a building, but the Mr Nisar Usmani Sb said, "Don't give money to build a building."

In the world of sports, unfortunately we could not find an administrative head like Air Marshal Noor Khan during whose time we were number one in hockey, cricket and squash. Later, except for a few, only "Dunmber" came and gradually the nation first fell, then the national game. Salute to India's Chopra, who first raised his voice for his rival Arshad Nadeem, "Brothers, at least give him a good spear." Whatever Arshad has achieved only through his individual efforts, please don't use it for your own political gain.

I also remember that boxer from Lyari who won a medal in an international competition held in Karachi years ago, at that time he did not have a single meal due to lack of money and the first time after winning He ate the request. I also remember those footballers and boxers of this area who went into the world of crime due to unemployment.

Like other sectors, the national sports of hockey and cricket were also affected by corruption. 

In cricket

Masha Allah, we have sold the land of the cricket board at the price of shillings. And get someone to investigate the 23 acres of land of Karachi National Stadium at a high level. This lust for money got to the cricketers as well. And eminent cricketers traded the prestige of the country. Not one but many stories.

Then nothing else, take a detailed review of the report of the Justice Malik Qayyum Commission.

A commission headed by Justice (retd) Malik Muhammad Qayyum launched an investigation into match-fixing in Pakistan cricket in 1998. The report of this commission consisted of 150 pages. The report was released in 2000 and was the first comprehensive crackdown on match-fixing in Pakistan cricket. 

Background

In the 1990s, with the rise in popularity of cricket, allegations of match-fixing also began to surface. 

Few famous players of Pakistan were accused of match-fixing

Salim Malik

Wasim Akram

Waqar Younis

Inzamam-ul-Haq

Saeed Anwar

Amishtaq Ahmed

The Justice Qayyum Commission was formed to investigate the allegations against these players. 

Recommendations of the report

The commission made several recommendations after its investigation, which included fines of millions of rupees or lifetime bans on the players. 

Salim Malik was also banned for life and fined Rs 10 lakh. 

Atta Rahman was banned for life. 

Wasim Akram was also removed from the captaincy and his assets were investigated and a fine of Rs 3 lakh was imposed. 

Mushtaq Ahmed was decided not to be given any responsibility (captaincy, selection) and was also fined Rs 3 lakh. 

Waqar Younis, Inzamam-ul-Haq, Saeed Anwar, and Akram Raza were fined Rs. 

Implementation of the report

Report recommendations could not be fully applied. Because some recommendations were ignored due to changes of chairman and various administrative issues in PCB. For example, Mushtaq Ahmed later continued to carry out coaching duties even though the report recommended keeping a close eye on him. 

Discussion on the status of the report

While some quarters termed the report as incomplete, Justice Qayyum rejected the impression saying that the report was fully prepared and it was the PCB's responsibility to implement the report. 

PCB also acknowledged the report and appreciated it. But many problems were faced in the implementation of this report. 

The Justice Qayyum Commission report was an important step against match-fixing in Pakistan cricket. But due to non-implementation of its recommendations, problems arose in the future as well. Had the report's recommendations been fully implemented and legislation enacted in light of it, the subsequent spot-fixing scandals might have been avoided. 


Even in our sports board appointments are made on "political" grounds. We are not even ashamed to review why only one Arshad Nadeem has come forward in the last 77 years and that too not because of the patronage of any board but because of his hard work. It has been Just go to the Olympics and have fun. Now, what could be more unfortunate than that our national hero Imran Khan became the Prime Minister, there was hope that he would make institutional reforms in the promotion of sports. He held that position.

When the sports quota was removed from the department, a large number of sportsmen became unemployed. Arshadandim himself, who probably worked in WAPDA, also fell victim. Till date, we have no national sports policy, the heads of sports federations and boards are appointed on political grounds. Now, what is our university friend Shehla Raza's connection with hockey, but she was made the president of the hockey association. Be it Mohsen Naqvi or Najam Sethi Khalid Mahmood or anyone else, if the head of sports is appointed and dismissed by changing governments, then the fate will be the same. It will be what is happening now.

We have been victims of terrorism since the 80s, but till today we have not evaluated how much "sport" can bring about a big change. In the global war against terrorism. Let me conclude by giving an example. There was a time when "cricket" was not liked very much by the conservatives, the limit was that rubbing the hair with the fast bowler's paint was also considered as "obscenity". Today, from Pakistan to Afghanistan, it has practically become the "national sport" of the Pashtuns. Sport eliminates intolerance. Teaches to bear defeat with courage. There are mixed feelings of happiness and gratitude on winning. Arshad Nadeem, thank you for bringing joy to the faces of the disappointed nation and telling them that you are actually "Mister speed". Congratulations to the people of Mian Chanu area.
