I salute the special athletes and thank them for the honour and glory that they have brought Pakistan.
RAWALPINDI: Pakistani athletes won a total of 56 medals in the recently-concluded Special Olympics in Greece. We should be honoured by the great work of our athletes but the sorry fact is that most of us are probably not even aware of their achievements. How many of us went to the airport to receive them on their flight back from Greece? I salute them and thank them for the honour and glory that they have brought Pakistan, especially at this point in time when there is little to celebrate or be happy about.
