Can Bhaichung Bhutia shoot past Kalyan Chaubey in AIFF polls?
Football Federation (AIFF) will have a former footballer as president for the first time in its 85-year history, but it won’t be without a fight. Former India captain Bhaichung Bhutia has upset plans of the state associations who met on Wednesday night and formed its own ‘panel’ with goalkeeper, and now BJP leader, Kalyan Chaubey as its unanimous choice for the top post. Twenty-eight state associations representatives met in the Capital to finalise the executive committee and chose Chaubey as the presidential nominee. But before the former India goalkeeper could file his nomination on Thursday morning, Bhutia walked inside the AIFF headquarters and submitted his papers, backed by Rajasthan and Andhra Pradesh. Besides the two former footballers, no other nomination is expected for the president’s post. “I deserve this chance and I am capable of getting Indian football back on track,” said Bhutia, India’s second-most capped footballer after Sunil Chhetri. “My life has been football. I got Arjuna (award) and Padma Shri because of football, and this is a great opportunity for all of us. Right now, it’s a mess. Football needs good reforms and management.” Bhutia, 45, the first Indian footballer to play 100 international matches, will be up against the might of Chaubey, a former India goalkeeper who represented nine clubs and five states during his career. “If given an opportunity, I will try and see that football is taken to the next level,” said Chaubey. “Football has huge potential in India. Whatever recognition I have received in the society, it’s because of football. But there is lots to be done.”
Kalyan Chaubey is being misled by states: Bhaichung Bhutia
Bhaichung Bhutia ensured that there would be a match in the All Indian Football Federation (AIFF) elections when he filed his nomination for the post of the president against Kalyan Chaubey, proposed and seconded by Andhra and Rajasthan. He spoke to TOI on Thursday. Excerpts:From claiming to fight for the players and standing from that plank a couple of days ago to now being nominated like this, what changed in the interim?I’ve always said before, this is my life. I have been in football for 40 years now, and this is what I know. I have the know-how, the knowledge to serve Indian football. And players know these things best. I can work closely with states as a team for development of Indian football.
