GUWAHATI: All Assam Sports Pensioners’ Association (AASPA) has appealed to Chief Minister Dr Himanta Biswa Sarma to ensure the timely and regular disbursement of pensions for retired sportspersons. The association emphasized that, like government employees, artists, and other beneficiaries, retired athletes should also receive their monthly pensions on time. They pointed out that the last payment was made in August 2024, after which disbursements stopped. As a result, many former sportspersons— who once brought pride to Assam — are now struggling to fulfill their daily needs.
