KATHMANDU, July 21: A meeting between the Member Secretary of the National Sports Council (NSC) Tanka Lal Ghising and visiting Judo coach Mohammad Mansur from Germany was held in Kathmandu on Friday.
Mansur arrived in Kathmandu to provide training to the Nepali athletes participating in the 19th Asian Games taking place in Hangzhou in China from September 23 to October 28.
On the occasion, Ghising inquired about a plan for the training session, and pledged on behalf of the Council to provide help in the training. The International Judo Federation sent Mansur, also the former head Judo coach for Iran, to Nepal, said the NSC President Dipak Harsha Bajracharya.
