Congratulations!
Two teams have participated in the BFF election held recently and nearly an equal number of contestants from the two sides have come out victorious. Salahuddin, the country's best and legendary striker, is the new president. On the other hand, Salam, another popular striker who has the record of scoring the maximum number of goals in a single season in Dhaka League, was elected senior vice-president. Not only Salahuddin and Salam but also Aslam, Badal Roy, Helal, Babul, Rupu and many other popular footballers have won this year.
Football was the most popular game in our country. People enjoyed this game very much. They were divided mainly into two clubs i.e. Mohammedans and Abahani. Their happiness knew no bounds when their favourite team won.
But now football is not in the field. We were the best team in the Saarc region but our team is now lagging behind even Nepal or the Maldives, let alone India.
For the better development of mental and physical health, there is no other easy alternative to football. So, we have to bring it back.
I think the present bosses of BFF are the best in our history. If they work sincerely and honestly, football will regain its lost glory.
We congratulate Salahuddin and his team.
