I grew up dreaming of watching our Indian football team shine on the global stage, and it is heartbreaking to see that once again, hopes of participating in esteemed tournaments have diminished. Recently, our Indian football team faced disqualification from both the AFC Asian Cup and the World Cup. The dream feels farther away, and it's distressing to witness the current state of Indian football.

It is clear that the future of Indian football is in the wrong hands. We can, however, shift course and propel Indian football towards unprecedented heights by making strategic choices that align with dedication, experience, and a profound understanding of the sport. This is why I advocate for Ranjit Bajaj, a name synonymous with passion, dedication, and success in Indian football, to be appointed as the coach for the senior men's football team.

Ranjit Bajaj has a track record of transforming teams and nurturing talent. Under his leadership, Minerva Punjab FC won its maiden I-League title, demonstrating his capability to inspire and elevate football teams to newer heights. It is not just his accolades that make him a compelling choice but his vision for nurturing grassroots football and promoting young talent is precisely what Indian football needs at this juncture.

By appointing Ranjit Bajaj as coach, we can rejuvenate our team with fresh energy and ideas, preparing them to qualify for the FIFA World Cup 2030 and the AFC Asian Cup 2031. His understanding of the game, tactical acumen, and ability to motivate players can pave the way for Indian football to gain the global recognition it so dearly deserves.

Let's stand united for a change that will rewrite the future of Indian football. Your signature today is a step towards witnessing our team compete proudly on the world stage. Sign this petition and help us achieve a brighter future for Indian football.
