All Party Sikh Coordination Committee (APSCC) Chairman Jagmohan Singh Raina welcomed the India–Pakistan cricket match, terming it a positive step toward improving relations between the two neighbouring countries. He said that sports, especially cricket, have the power to bring people closer and reduce hostility. Raina expressed hope that such sporting engagements would help strengthen people-to-people contact and create an atmosphere of dialogue and understanding between India and Pakistan. “Cricket should be a bridge of peace, not a battlefield of politics,” he said. The APSCC Chairman also made a heartfelt appeal to the Prime Ministers of both India and Pakistan to work sincerely towards ending terrorism and promoting lasting peace in the region. He emphasized that terrorism has no religion or nationality and only causes suffering to innocent people on both sides of the border. “Peace, friendship, and cooperation are the real victories. When terrorism ends, sports, trade, and cultural exchanges will flourish, benefitting future generations,” Raina added. He reiterated that the Sikh community has always stood for harmony, coexistence, and peace, and will continue to support every initiative that brings stability and goodwill to the region.
