The Baby league scam involved the manipulation of age groups in a youth football league, leading to unfair competition. The Mufti Memorial scam was related to the misuse of funds meant for the development of football infrastructure in the region. The Covid scam involved the embezzlement of funds meant for Covid relief measures and financial assistance for football players.

This will ensure that those who have committed wrongdoing are held accountable and that the football administration in Jammu & Kashmir is free from corruption and malpractice.
The football community in Jammu & Kashmir is hopeful that the authorities will take swift and decisive action to address these issues and restore trust in the sport. It is important that all stakeholders work together to promote transparency, accountability, and fairness in football administration, for the betterment of the game and the community it serves.
