Pakistan has achieved a landmark moment in international football governance as Member of the National Assembly Syeda Amna Batool has been appointed to FIFA’s highly regarded Institutional Reforms Committee. The development is being described as one of the country’s most important breakthroughs in the global football arena.
The Ministry of Information welcomed the appointment, calling it more than a sporting achievement. Officials termed it a diplomatic success that reflects renewed trust and confidence by FIFA in Pakistan’s engagement with international sports institutions.
The government, under the leadership of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, has emphasized reviving and promoting football across the country. This latest recognition at the global level highlights Pakistan’s growing involvement in football governance and reform initiatives. As a member of FIFA’s Institutional Reforms Committee, Syeda Amna Batool will represent Pakistan’s interests and contribute to key policy discussions shaping the future of the sport worldwide.
The appointment is being seen as a historic step that strengthens Pakistan’s presence on the international stage and offers new hope for the development of sports within the country. It also serves as an encouraging signal for young athletes and sports administrators striving to see Pakistan more actively involved in global sporting affairs.
FIFA, the world’s governing body for football, is responsible for overseeing international competitions, setting regulations, and promoting the sport across continents. Pakistan has been affiliated with FIFA through the Pakistan Football Federation (PFF) since 1948. However, the country’s football landscape has faced persistent challenges over the years, including infrastructure limitations, financial constraints, and administrative disputes that hindered progress.
In recent years, Islamabad has focused on rebuilding Pakistan’s football profile by addressing governance issues, encouraging grassroots development, supporting women’s football, and engaging with international programs. Syeda Amna Batool’s inclusion in FIFA’s Institutional Reforms Committee reflects global acknowledgment of these efforts.
This milestone not only enhances Pakistan’s diplomatic standing in sports governance but also opens new opportunities to strengthen football development at home while contributing meaningfully to reforms at the international level.
