STARTS WITH A
SINGLE VOICE.
If you love the game, you have a voice.
If you have a voice, you can be an FBA Yoddha.

ENOUGH
IS ENOUGH.
Indian football has passionate fans, talented players and enormous potential. The question is whether the system is delivering what the game deserves.
GRASSROOTS
Young players need grounds, coaching, competitions and a pathway to grow.
INVESTMENT
Clubs, players, coaches and development programmes need sustainable investment.
RESULTS
Long-term plans should be judged by measurable outcomes—not publicity alone.

WE ARE NOT
AGAINST FOOTBALL.
WE ARE FOR ITS FUTURE.
FOOTBALL BEFORE POLITICS.
PLAYERS BEFORE POWER.
GRASSROOTS BEFORE GLAMOUR.
DEVELOPMENT BEFORE PUBLICITY.
FOOTBALL BACHAO. FOOTBALL BADHAO.

06 / THE RECORD
THE QUESTIONS
THAT DESERVE
ANSWERS.
These are accountability questions for public scrutiny. They are not presented as findings of guilt. Where allegations or disputed claims are involved, the underlying records should be independently verified.
01 / FORENSIC AUDIT
What did the AIFF forensic audit find? Where is the accountability?
02 / TENDER TRANSPARENCY
Were major broadcasting contracts awarded transparently? Who benefited?
03 / AIFF EXPENSES
Were federation funds used appropriately for presidential travel and expenses? Where are the complete records?
04 / AFC INQUIRY
The AFC asked for evidence regarding corruption allegations. What was the outcome?
05 / CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Why did Churchill Brothers raise conflict-of-interest concerns involving the AIFF president?
06 / ETHICS COMMITTEE
Why did the Delhi High Court appoint an independent retired judge to chair the AIFF ethics panel?
07 / FANS DEMAND
THE GAME IS
BIGGER THAN
ANYONE.
Indian football deserves transparency, accountability, merit and a long-term vision. Fans deserve to be heard.
