London: Boxer Aamir Khan dissatisfied with the PTI government's performance
British-Pakistani boxer Amir Khan has alleged that Prime Minister Imran Khan has done ‘nothing for sports in Pakistan’ after coming to power, adding that he would himself like to become the sports minister in Pakistan to promote sports.
In an interview the boxer praised PM Imran Khan as a great sports player and a great politician, however he added, that
he has “not done much for sports”. The boxing star said, “So you know even though he is a great person but for sports he has not done nothing. Being a sportsman, he has not done anything for sports”.
In the same interview, Khan credited himself for being “the only person that does something for sports”.
Boxer Khan said that he was taking Pakistani boxers ‘around the world to put them in fights’. Amir Khan has said on several occasions he wanted to establish more boxing academies in Pakistan, but he was not getting the assistance to do so.
The boxer alleged that a government minister visited his boxing academy, made some pictures and left, and nothing was done after that.
