KARACHI:
Promoting sports will help engage our youth towards pursuing more physical activities, which will affect their overall wellbeing and in turn uplifting their spirits. The youth must be encouraged to participate in all types of sports. Not only do sports inculcate in teenagers a healthy and active lifestyle but it also contributes to national progress.
The government of Balochistan recently announced its decision to build playgrounds in all districts of the province. The decision was wholeheartedly welcomed by the people. However, the government must also remember the outskirts of the districts. Kuddan Dasht is a sub-tehsil of district Kech with a population of as many as 10,0000 people. Therefore, Kuddan also deserves a playground. The youth of the region have turned to criminal activities whilst others suffer mentally due to their dire circumstances. A playground will allow the youth to engage in healthy activities and rejuvenate their spirits.
Given the plight and welfare of the youth, the inhabitants of Kuddan request the incumbent government of Balochistan and the MPA of the constituency to build a playground in our region. This will help promote a healthy environment for both the present and upcoming generations.
