A cricket-related initiative taken by the youth of Parachinar in Kurram district is highly commendable. A group of local players recently organised the Parachinar Super League (PSL), a grassroots cricket tournament aimed at promoting peace, harmony and youth engagement in the region.
In a place that has faced years of unrest, such efforts offer a constructive and unifying outlet for young people. Through this tournament, players are not only showcasing their talents but also sending a strong message: that the youth of Parachinar want peace, prosperity and positive change.
It is essential for the local government and the Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa provincial authorities to recognise and support this initiative. Encouragement in the form of funding, sports facilities and recognition could further empower these youth to become ambassadors of hope in their community. This local sports movement is a powerful reminder that real change often begins at the grassroots level.
