The court was hearing a petition challenging the Delhi HC order setting aside the constitution of AIFF. The top court had formed a committee of administrators to form the constitution and also have an executive committee.

A draft constitution has been submitted to the court and the court was dealing with objections by diverse stakeholders like FIA, IOA, Ministry of Youth and Sports and Rahul Mehra who appears as a petitioner in person.

The 'amicus curiae' submitted that it was necessary to ensure that the independence and autonomy of AIFF is preserved from outside influences and finally, it has been urged that there is compliance with FIFA and Olympic charter. The court was dealing with the draft constitution and the objections raised by various stakeholders.

The top court said that it is of the view that it will be appropriate to defer this exercise since these are not issues of law but matters of policy dealing with the running sport of football in India. The court while assigning the job to Justice Rao noted that he was also dealing with issues related to Indian Olympic Association.
