NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court Wednesday asked the Centre to take a "pro-active role" in the All India Football Federation (AIFF) matter for facilitating the holding of the Under-17 Women's World Cup in India and the lifting of the suspension of the country's apex football body by FIFA.
The top court deferred till the August 22 hearing on the AIFF matter after the Centre said it is in discussion with the International Football Federation (FIFA) over the holding of the U-17 Women's world cup in India.
