The Government of Sindh has postponed the Sindh Pink Games due to the intensifying heatwave, just a day after officially announcing the event.
According to officials, the games were scheduled to take place in Nawabshah from May 8 to 10 and were set to be inaugurated by First Lady Aseefa Bhutto Zardari. Authorities said the decision was made after multiple sports associations raised concerns over the extreme weather conditions.
