Federal Minister for Inter-Provincial Coordination (IPC), Dr. Fehmida Mirza, met with the FIFA Normalization Committee of Barrister Hasris Azmat, a member of the Pakistan Football Federation (PFF).
IPC Secretary and Director-General Pakistan Sports Board (PSB) were also present at the meeting.
The minister, who is also president of PSB, reiterated the government’s policy of non-interference in the affairs of PFF. She said the government had strictly followed the policy of neutrality and impartiality in the case of PFF.
However, it is important to emphasize that the current unrest has caused irreparable loss to the football match in Pakistan. The government wants a peaceful solution while meeting international obligations, Fehmida underlined.
She said the government was trying to act as a facilitator to speed up the dispute process in a friendly way.
The normalization committee can follow the FIFA roadmap and the time frame to hold the election in a fair, free and transparent manner, she added.
