New Delhi, Jan 25: Trouble is brewing in Indian football administration as some state units are planning to express no confidence on All India Football Federation (AIFF) president Kalyan Chaubey over the controversies plaguing the national body, though there’s still lack of clarity over the legal basis of such a move. A top office bearer of a state unit claimed that more than 20 units (out of 36 the AIFF has) have agreed to write to the national body to call a Special General Body Meeting (SGM) to move a no confidence motion against Chaubey.
“In 10 to 15 days, we are writing to the AIFF to call a SGM and we will move a no confidence motion against the president. We will write a common letter and 24 or 25 state units will sign it,” the official said on conditions of anonymity.
“The AIFF will have to call the SGM within 60 days of the receipt of our request, since the request will be made by more than one-third of the total state units.” (PTI)
