Denied visa by India, Pakistan's sports body lodges complaint

The Pakistan Billiards and Snooker Association (PBSA) protested the denial of visas to its junior athletes and a referee, preventing their participation in the IBSF U-18 and U-21 World Championships in Bengaluru. Despite timely applications and clearances, the Indian High Commission refused visas, leading to no Pakistani representation. PBSA lodged complaints with IBSF and the Indian federation.
