Addressing the meeting, Adnan Arshad Aulakh said several world class sports facilities have been provided in Nishtar Park Sports Complex and many international sports players used to visit here for sports events quite frequently.
“In such a situation, a 5-Star hotel was badly needed here. The security issue of international teams will also be resolved after the construction of a 5-Star hotel which will also provide a complete residence facility to world sports stars. In this way the authorities won’t need to block the traffic and other roads for the security of foreign sports teams,” said Adnan.
The Pakistan Cricket Board’s senior General Manager Admin Col (retd) Ashfaq Ahmed, on this occasion, lauded Sports Board Punjab’s step of 5-Star hotel at Nishtar Park Sports Complex.
