Islamabad, November 10, 2022 (PPI-OT):The Standing Committee on Inter-Provincial Coordination met this afternoon in Parliament House, Islamabad under the Chairmanship of Mr. Nawab Sher, MNA to discuss the performance of the M/o IPC and its attached departments.
The Committee appreciated the performance of the Pakistan Cricket Team for reaching the Final of T20 World Cup, 2022 and prayed that the Pakistan Cricket Team would win the Final Match and bring the World Cup Trophy to Pakistan as well.
The Committee directed that M/o IPC may provide proper supervision to other sports like, Baseball, Handball, Athletic, Golf and Football etc. as it had been reported that the associations of different games were organizing international events on private venues instead of National grounds.
