Quetta: Dr. Farhan Essa Abdullah, the Chef de Mission of the Sindh contingent participating in the ongoing 34th National Games, has said that the message of peace and love from the ongoing National Games in Quetta is not only going to the country but also to the whole world.

Today, through sports, the world is becoming aware of the culture of all the provinces of Pakistan, the national heritage and the scenery of the beautiful places of Balochistan. The organization of the National Games will be very helpful in the promotion and development of sports in the country. From this mega event, where the discovery of new talent, young athletes are given ample opportunities to express their abilities, there is an environment of healthy competition between athletes at the national level and mutual respect is being cultivated. The atmosphere of harmony and brotherhood has increased. While congratulating the government of Balochistan, the Pakistan Olympic Association and all the security agencies for the successful organization of the National Games, Dr. Farhan Essa said that in the current situation, peaceful methods and best arrangements are laudable by the Balochistan Govt. regarding the performance of the Sindh team in the Games. Dr. Farhan Essa said that Pakistan's rising star Hareem Malik has made us proud by winning three gold medals for Sindh in Swimming.  In other sports too, the performance of our athletes has been outstanding. Sindh tops the ranking of the provinces in swimming events.

The exemplary discipline shown by all the players and officials in the squad during the mega event is commendable.  He said that regarding the formation of teams for the Games, I had given clear instructions to the officials of all the sports associations that open trials should be held for teams selection, selection should be based on merit and no talented athlete should be deprived of his rights, he concluded.
