The Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports has clarified that while bilateral sporting ties with Pakistan will remain suspended, Pakistani athletes and teams will still be permitted to participate in multilateral international events hosted in India. The clarification came through a circular issued to National Sports Federations, the Indian Olympic Association, the Sports Authority of India and other stakeholders, formally defining the government’s current sporting policy towards Pakistan. Under the policy, Indian teams will not travel to Pakistan for bilateral competitions, while Pakistani teams will also not be allowed to compete in bilateral events hosted in India.
