NAGPUR District Football Association (NDFA) will be holding its annual general meeting and elections (if needed) on May 24 besides NDFA Office, Kamptee Road.
Sardar Atal Bahadur Singh, in all probability, will continue to lead the district’s football governing body. Though the ‘Santa Claus’ of football loving fans is indisposed and has shown his unwillingness to continue, members want the former Nagpur mayor to head the association.
Singh is very efficiently working as the president of the association for last 29 years. He was first elected as the president in 1986 when he took over from former MP Datta Meghe.
There is also a possibility of re-jigging of five vice-presidents’ posts. Haresh Vora, Salim Baig, Abdul Latif are sure to retain their posts as vice-presidents. The present committee is contemplating inclusion of BJP MLA Sameer Meghe as one of its vice-presidents. Meghe has completed two years as ordinary member and is now eligible to contest for the post.
The ruling party is also mulling including Hemant Sahani as one of its executive committee members. Hemant is son of former NDFA treasurer Chandramohan Sahani. “Nothing is finalised yet. We will sit together and decide in a few days. All the members are of the opinion that Sardar Atal Bahadur Singh should continue to head the association,” sources told ‘The Hitavada’.
“There is a possibility of offering Sameer Meghe one of the vice-presidents post. There might be some new faces in executive committee too. But nothing is finalised yet. Everything will be clear by 16th or 17th,” sources added.
There are 22 posts in NDFA’s executive committee but elections, if needed, will be held for 21 posts. As per NDFA’s constitution, there will be no election for the post of secretary and the same will be appointed by the elected members. The last elections of the association were held on May 12, 2013 for only three executive members’ post from life members’ category.
The new body will be elected for a period of two years.
