AIFF is under jurisdiction of CoA: Supreme Court

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Wednesday did a cricket with football as it applied court-devised BCCI reform formula on the All India Football Federation (AIFF) by substituting the Praful Patel-led executive committee with Committee of Administrators (CoA) led by former SC Judge AR Dave.

A bench of Justices DY Chandrachud, Surya Kant, and PS Narasimha mandated the three member COA, also comprising former CEC S Y Qureshi and former India captain Bhaskar Ganguly, to forthwith take the reins of AIFF, including its day-to-day affairs as well as selection of players for various tournaments. As a consolation, the bench said CoA would be free to consult Patel-led executive committee, whose four-year tenure expired on December 20, 2022.
