"The post of the secretary general is a paid post and he was not appointed by the executive committee. The president has the power to appoint and remove the secretary general. So the president issued the termination letter," Haris said. Satyanarayan will now take charge to replace Prabhakaran in his vacant post.
Meanwhile, Prabhakaran on his part, said that he was shocked with the decision. "AIFF's decision to terminate me comes as a shock. We were working as a team.
