The Pakistan Olympic Association (POA) and the Athletics Federation of Pakistan (AFP) have again come face to face over the issue of athletes’ participation in the Asian Games.

The Pakistan Olympics Association has rejected the allegations of the Athletics Federation of Pakistan and said that AFP’s affiliation with the POA has ended.

The POA says the Pakistan Olympics Association cannot talk to a non-affiliated body, having already suspended the athletics federation for doping violations.

The Pakistan Olympics Association has said that the athletes for the Asian Games were selected in consultation with the departments.

The POA also said that the PSB sent the AFP list to the POA after the deadline, after which no athlete could have been included who was sent to the Asian Games. They were also sent by the Athletics Federation to international competitions.
