Shaukatullah takes over sports ministry
Shaukatullah, Federal Minister for States and Frontier Regions, has assumed the additional charge of Federal Minister for Sports, in a bid to meet the expectations of the prime minister regarding the growth of sports in the country.
The ministry had been vacant since last month when all the members of the federal cabinet resigned including the sports minister Ijaz Ahmed Jakhrani.
Meanwhile, Shaukatullah applauded the Pakistan tennis team that won the important tie matches against Hong-Kong in Oceana Group-II. “Tennis stars deserve high accolades over their remarkable performance in the international circuit,” said Shaukatullah.
