The outgoing federal government has announced the construction of a state-of-the-art Olympic Village in Islamabad to enhance sports facilities in the country.
As per media reports, the Olympic Village will be built in the foothills of Margalla, featuring international standard facilities for various sports activities.
The village will offer facilities like a cricket academy, an international cricket stadium, a hockey ground, a tennis complex, an athletics stadium, and indoor sports facilities.
In this regard, Shehbaz Sharif convened a high-level meeting in Islamabad, which was attended by key political figures, to thoroughly discuss the project.

Football is emerging sports in youths.In this village.Goverment can give due importance to this sports because fans of football is increasing day by days.
We the people of Pakistan request to the government that they can create facilities for the football lovers in this sports village.
That would be a great achievement.
What happened to sports complex? Oh right in ruins.
Again something on foothills of Margalla. What about nature. They just know how to construct and get the personal gains. We got contractors not politicians here
We don’t have trash disposal system, no side walks, poor street lights, bad storm water drainage, and the list goes on and on. Let’s get our priorities right.
