She said this during a meeting with members of the Martyrs Farm. On this occasion, the Sports Advisor said that sports fields are rapidly being developed in Balochistan and the government is making every effort to include youth from every section of society in these fields, especially those boys and girls whose parents sacrificed their lives for the country. She said that bringing such children forward in the sports fields is tantamount to raising their morale and making them active citizens of the society.
Meena Majeed Baloch said that teams in the name of martyrs will be formed in every game in Balochistan so that these teams can keep the mission of martyrs alive and give the message to the new generation that the families of those who made sacrifices are not alone, but the entire province and the government stand with them.
