SC appoints 3-member Committee to oversee the functioning of AIFF

The Supreme Court (SC) has appointed a three-member Committee of Administrators (CoA) to oversee the running of the All India Football Federation (AIFF) till elections are held to the game’s governing body in the country and the adoption of its constitution in accordance with the National Sports Code and model guidelines, led by former apex court judge AR Dave.

KEY POINTS:

The COA will include two previous members — Dr SY Qureshi, former Chief Election Commissioner, and Bhaskar Ganguly, former captain of the Indian Football Team, in addition to Retired Justice Dave, according to a bench of Justices DY Chandrachud, Surya Kant, and PS Narasimha.

The top court stated that the current state of affairs in the AIFF is not conducive to the federation’s legitimate governance. It instructed the CoA to assume control of the AIFF immediately and oversee the AIFF’s approval of the constitution.
