Ranjit Bajaj Seeks Court Order for Timely AIFF Executive Committee Elections
Football administrator Ranjit Bajaj has filed a court petition seeking directions for the All India Football Federation (AIFF) to promptly announce and complete elections to its Executive Committee under the National Sports Governance Act, 2025. Bajaj argues that the AIFF's constitutional alignment is complete, making further election delays unjustified. He also requests interim restrictions on the current committee from making major decisions until elections conclude. The petition challenges the AIFF's deferment linked to state association alignments, citing a prior court ruling that national elections should not be delayed on this basis.
