PSF lodged complain against India with World & Asian bodies

Pakistan Squash Federation (PSF) has lodged a complaint with the World and Asian squash bodies that the Indian High Commission delayed in issuing visas to a four-member Pakistan team, resulting in its pullout from the Asian Squash Championship.
