​Dear Sir and Madam and Athlete,

This association had selected a few athletes from the 3rd National Championship to play in the Indian team to participate in the Asian Championship, which is the qualification competition for the Amputee Football World Cup in 2025. While giving this selection, the association had informed these athletes that since the association currently does not have any government assistance, sponsor or financial support, all athletes should find a sponsor on their own and participate in this championship with the help of the government, and it was also informed that this association would only select those who are able to find financial support for the Indian team. Following all these things we said, the sportspersons received the selection letter of this association and through that letter they tried to get sponsorship. A few sportspersons directly informed this association that they did not get the sponsorship after trying. But by giving news saying that they got selection for the Indian team, they got the money from the government and sponsors and gained name and fame, and then they cheated this association. Even though these sportspersons whom we are expelling got the money, even when the association contacted them many times, they kept saying that we did not get any sponsor. We never even dreamed that they were cheating us. Based on this, in order to select the Indian team for the second phase, this association conducted a selection trial and selected athletes from it and told them the above-mentioned things. They approached the sponsor but they did not get any. Therefore, this association decided that the Indian team would not participate in the 2025 Asian Qualification Championship. However, before January 11, some individuals and institutions approached our association and complained to the association that they had received financial assistance from us for some athletes through the selection letter you provided. Similarly, on the basis of the complaint that some sportspersons playing under this association have approached the association and some sportspersons are working against the association and forcing us to work with them, this association has decided in the executive committee meeting of this association held on 13th January 2026 to expel the following sportspersons and to file complaints against the persons who have given sponsorship to them by the respective state government for taking action against them.

The following are the people who have been expelled from this association.

On the basis of this, the association has come to know that this is a mistake that we can never forgive, and on the basis of this association's name being used for financial fraud and deceiving us, the above-mentioned individuals are being expelled from this association and action is being taken against them. This is a warning to all those who work against us. We remind everyone that if you play with us, you will be playing with fire.
