NNIS VIDEO: Will AIFF president Praful Patel’s FIFA Council entry help Indian Football?

The All India Football Federation president Praful Patel became the first Indian to be elected on the all-powerful FIFA Council and the 62-years old Asian Football Confederation Vice-President also had the honour of addressing the continental federation congress in the absence of President Shaikh Salman Bin Ebrahim Al Khalifa, who was mourning the demise of his mother.

With his election at the top, the question is what would this mean for Indian football? NNIS tries to answer that question by talking to AIFF general secretary Kushal Das and Football Delhi president Dr. Shaji Prabhakaran.
