#BREAKING | SC dictates order in FIFA Ban case: AIFF constitution should be revised in accordance with FIFA elections to be held within one week. Notably, the Centre on Monday in a bid to revoke the ban urged the Supreme Court (SC) to end the tenure of the Committee of Administrators (CoA) and direct that the day-to-day management of the AIFF shall be looked after by the AIFF administration led by the acting Secretary General. The Supreme Court said that the order is being passed in the hope that FIFA will revoke the suspension of the AIFF and the Under-17 Women's World Cup to be held in India. In case the desired result is not achieved, the court will consider further orders, it added. It has further ordered the administration led by the Secretary General of AIFF to look into the day-to-day matters of the AIFF.Īccording to the SC's order, the executive committee of AIFF shall consist of 23 members of which 17 including the treasurer to be elected by the electoral college of 36 (6 members shall be drawn from eminent players.) It further added that the preliminary findings of the forensic audit of AIFF funds be looked into by the Union sports ministry, which would take action in accordance with law.

The apex court further in its order announced that the voter's list for the ensuing election shall consist of representatives of 36 state associations.

Days after FIFA suspended the All India Football Federation (AIFF), stripping India's right to host the under-17 Women's football World Cup, the Supreme Court on Monday said that the AIFF constitution should be revised in accordance with FIFA and ordered the AIFF to hold an election in within one week.
