India and Pakistan are now currently embroliled in one of the most tense political situations, especially after the gruesome Pahalgam terrorist attack last year. This has reached the sporting arena as well, as it has affected several tournaments. Now, Pakistan has officially withdrawn its team from the upcoming Asian Fencing Championships, scheduled to take place in New Delhi from June 18 to 24. The decision stems from Pakistan’s accusation that India allegedly failed to provide necessary assurances regarding the athletes’ safety and travel documentation.
