Lahore, Aug.28 (ANI): Pakistani motor racing star Adnan Sarwar has expressed disappointment over missing the National Racing Championship, scheduled to be held in Coimbatore on August 29 (Sunday), after he was denied a visa.
"I have been representing the country in motor racing circuit all over the world and it is the first time in my career that I have come across such a situation," said Sarwar, who finished fourth in the World Series Karting race in Dubai recently.

"Athletes act as goodwill ambassadors and the Pakistani government needs to take necessary steps to ensure that talent from our country travels to all corners of the world to improve our image among the international community," The Dawn quoted Sarwar, as saying. (ANI)
