Death blow to football in Kashmir



[Sooner or later you will be thrown out]
 

Football was almost dead in Kashmir, if it was not for one foreigner Juan Marcos Trio, a Brazilian, who single handedly tried to revive and has been quite successful. Juan is a Brazilian who volunteered to restore football in Kashmir way back in 2007 and thus ISAT was born. Recently two boys from the valley under his coaching were selected for advanced training in Spain. Such a step by a man from an alien nation, coming to Kashmir, one of the world most dangerous places, should be applauded. But the Government of India tries to play spoil sport again; they are not extending his visa. He is not a terrorist, neither does he carry guns; he is here to teach football to youngsters. Juan is one of the most loved foreigners in Kashmir, he got lathis from the Indian security forces a couple of years ago because they mistook him for a Kashmiri, but that didn’t deter him from his job. Such a person should be awarded; instead they are trying to throw him out.
