For committing a ‘serious offence’, FIFA will take the U-17 World Cup from India and the tournament will be swept away

The Bureau of the FIFA Council suspended the Indian Football Association (AIFF) on Monday for “a grave breach”, calling into question the organization of the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup to be held in India.
