No bilateral sporting ties with Pakistan
The Morning Standard
|August 22, 2025
THE sports ministry on Thursday reiterated that India and Pakistan will not have any bilateral sporting ties even on neutral venues but the cricket team won't be stopped from playing the Asia Cup next month as it is a multi-lateral engagement.

The detailed policy has been uploaded on the ministry's official website. "India's approach to sports events involving Pakistan reflects its overall policy in dealing with that country. In so far as bilateral sports events in each other's country are concerned, Indian teams will not be participating in competitions in Pakistan. Nor will we permit Pakistani teams to play in India," read the policy.
India had accused Pakistan of the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people earlier this year. It led to military showdown between the two countries in May with India launching 'Operation Sindoor'. Incidentally, India last visited Pakistan for the 2008 Asia Cup while Pakistan last came to India in 2012 for a bilateral series.

The Young Regret Their Actions; the Old, Their Inaction
Youth tend to act first and reflect later. This may explain why many young people spend a fair bit of time regretting ‘sins of commission’, or things they’ve said or done. These ‘sins’ are usually the result of impulsive actions, poor decisions or simple social missteps. Feelings of regret may arise from cruel words hurled at parents, a fight with a sibling, a reckless purchase, a cringe-worthy message sent to an ex at 2 am, or a job impulsively quit.
