“Sports are not just about competition; they are a means of building character, discipline, and teamwork. By creating world-class sports facilities in Bahu constituency, we are investing in the future of our youth and empowering them to lead healthier and more fulfilling lives,” Tony stated.
He also vowed to introduce sports academies in collaboration with national and international sports bodies to ensure professional coaching and mentoring for the youth. Special emphasis will be placed on nurturing local talent and providing scholarships for underprivileged athletes, giving every young person in Bahu Constituency an opportunity to shine.
“My goal is to ensure that Bahu Constituency becomes a beacon of sports excellence in Jammu and Kashmir, producing athletes who will represent our state with pride on the national and international stage,” he added.
Tony urged the people of Bahu Constituency to support him in the upcoming Assembly elections. “I promise to be your voice, to work tirelessly for the development of Bahu constituency and ensure that our youth have access to the best opportunities.
