Parallel committees of gymnastics association unite

Kathmandu– Minister for Youth and Sports Jagat Bahadur Bishwakarma has said that two parallel associations of a sport cannot exist at a time. 

At a programme organized in the capital city on Wednesday to congratulate the newly formed office bearers of Nepal Gymnastics Association, Minister Bishwakarma said that the ministry has forwarded the concept of a single committee of a game in the country to avoid the conflict over the sportspersons' participation in the national and international tournaments.
