NEW DELHI, Aug 23: The elections to the AIFF Executive Committee will be held on September 2 and aspiring candidates can file fresh nominations from August 25, the returning officer has announced.
The Supreme Court on Monday terminated the Committee of Administrator (CoA), as demanded by the world governing body FIFA, and pushed back the AIFF election by a week.
Hours after the SC order, returning officer Umesh Sinha issued a fresh notice, outlining the process afresh.
The nominations for the posts can be filed between Thursday and Saturday while the scrutiny will be done on Sunday (August 28).
The candidates, whose nominations are deemed valid, will have a chance to withdraw the nomination, if they want, on August 29 while the returning officer shall prepare the final list of contesting candidates and put it on the AIFF website on August 30.
The polls would be held on September 2 at AIFF Headquarter in New Delhi and the results could be announced on September 2 or 3, according to the returning officer’s notice. (PTI)
