All India Football Federation (AIFF) president Praful Patel had made a bizarre announcement on his Twitter account stating, “Have appointed my friend and great football fan as Vice President of the U17 World Cup Organizing Committee. Welcome aboard!” to appoint the singer turned BJP MP as the Vice-president of the Local Organizing Committee (LOC). Thus there might not be any official FIFA U17 World Cup President 2017 but Babul Supriyo has taken the responsibility on behalf of the committee to organize the FIFA U17 World Cup 2017. FIFA’s Chief Commercial Officer Philippe Le Floch while attending the media here announced that Hero Motocorp as the ‘National Supporter’ of the U-17 World Cup, AIFF general secretary Kushal Das and tournament director of LOC, Javier Ceppi struggled to provide a justification behind Supriyo’s induction. They said, that “Babul Supriyo is a huge football fan. He has some great ideas on football, he (Supriyo) would be part of the Board of Directors (of the LOC). When he comes for meetings, I am sure he will come up with certain ideas. We have discussed football with him several times, and I think he is extremely knowledgeable and will be able to contribute a lot”. When Ceppi was asked about the decision that Praful Patel made, he said that they followed the protocol and it was a consulted decision.

Praful Patel the chairman of the organizing committee, offered no further credentials to back his appointee. In fact, judging by Babul’s reaction on Twitter, the singer-turned-politician wanted to accentuate that his love for the sport would be enough. The experience was an nonmaterialistic concern perhaps because his role is largely expected to be titular.
