00:00Hello and welcome to Sports Room, I am your host Najeeb Ulhasnain, as you know that the
00:20Paris Olympics is going on with a lot of noise and now our disappointment was not over that
00:27the country has a population of 25 crores and 7 athletes are representing it in the Olympics
00:33so the disappointment has increased even more.
00:37Our 4 athletes have had to face failure in the Paris Olympics and now the only hope is
00:43Arshad Nadeem in the javelin throw.
00:45Right now Mr. Razi Ahmed, Secretary National Rifle Association of Pakistan is trying to
00:50contact him.
00:51There was a problem with the video link.
00:53We will call him on audio and try to talk to him.
00:57What was the performance of our shooters?
00:59What were their expectations?
01:01Before that, let's contact him and talk to him.
01:04What is the public's opinion?
01:06What is the public thinking about this Olympics?
01:09We will show you the details.
01:10This is the public opinion.
01:22I think there is a technical problem right now.
01:25Mr. Razi Ahmed has joined us.
01:27Let's talk to the Secretary National Rifle Association of Pakistan first.
01:30Mr. Razi, tell me, did you have any expectations from our shooters that they will do well?
01:37Because Gulfam did not even show the performance that was shown in the previous Olympics.
01:44You are right.
01:46We had sent three shooters who had qualified for the Olympics.
01:52In the ranking given by our professional coach and team,
01:58G.M. Basheer was ranked number one,
02:01Kashmala was number two and Gulfam was number three.
02:05According to the performance.
02:07So, G.M. Basheer is ranked number one in Pakistan right now.
02:13So, the performance did not come as expected.
02:17There was a lot of disappointment.
02:19What do you think?
02:20Do we have a shortage of resources that we are not able to give such a performance?
02:26Is there anything that the shooters can do to get medals for us in the future?
02:31No, there is a slight difference.
02:34You see, only China and Korea are losing in shooting so far.
02:41The rest of the European countries and American countries are far behind.
02:46The shooting standards of both countries, including India and India, are far behind them.
02:54So, it's not that our shooters performed badly.
02:58Gulfam performed a little better.
03:01But the level of competition is very high right now.
03:06Absolutely right.
03:07But is it true that our shooter needed a gun or a pistol to be ordered from outside?
03:12His duty was told so much that he refused.
03:17Exactly.
03:18The structure of duty here is so much that there is no duty exemption for the players.
03:25We keep requesting again and again that we don't want anything else.
03:28We don't ask for financial resources or anything else.
03:31We just want to import license with exemption of duties.
03:36So, you didn't talk to the government about this?
03:41You didn't ask for help that our athletes don't have these problems?
03:44Obviously, they have to represent the country.
03:46We are trying to reach them at every level.
03:49We are not only talking to them, but we also write to them.
03:52We only demand these facilities.
03:56We can't demand any other facility.
04:00This is a matter of disappointment.
04:03I would also like to know that you qualified for Kashmala for the first time.
04:08Do you think this will encourage the girls?
04:12Will the girls also come forward in the shooting?
04:15Yes, the girls will definitely come forward.
04:18We still have both the girls and boys with us.
04:22Because Kashmala is close to them.
04:27We will groom them in the next four years.
04:30So, it is possible that some of them will come out of Kashmala.
04:36Thank you very much, Mr. Razi Ahmed.
04:38You were telling us how many problems we have to go through.
04:43How far have other countries in the world progressed in shooting?
04:47How far has their step gone?
04:49We just talked about a shooter who had to order a pistol or a gun from outside.
04:55He was told that he was not able to afford it, so he refused.
05:00So, when such small problems come in the way,
05:04how can you think that your athletes will go out and win medals?
05:09Hussain Shah, who won the boxing title for Pakistan in 1988.
05:15What do you think about this Olympics and our performance?
05:21There are more than three or four people.
05:24Pakistan is not participating, it is not qualifying.
05:26We should all go together so that Pakistan can advance in boxing,
05:30play the Olympics, play the Asian Games.
05:32We have done a good job.
05:34We should not advance in the Asian Games.
05:35We do not have a camp.
05:36It should take at least six to eight months to set up a camp.
05:41Until we all go together, our boxing will never improve.
05:45Boxers are coming from all over Asia.
05:47There are 36 or 37.
05:48There are fewer boxers.
05:49This is a very good opportunity to win medals.
05:51In our time, the whole team used to go from every country.
05:54It was very difficult then.
05:56Now it is very easy.
05:58What does the public think about this Olympics?
06:00Do they have any expectations from anyone?
06:02Obviously, if there is any expectation, it will be from Arshad Nadeem.
06:04Let's take a break here.
06:05Don't go anywhere.
06:06We'll be right back.
