Bengal Govt elevates IPS Ajay Mukund Ranade to DGP (Law and Order)
Sunil Chhetri, India's most decorated footballer, has announced his retirement from international football. Chhetri, 39, made the announcement via a video on social media platform X, stating that India's upcoming FIFA World Cup Qualifier game against Kuwait in Kolkata on June 6 will be his last.
Reflecting on his career, Chhetri said, "The recollection of the last 19 years is a combination of duty, pressure, and immense joy. I never thought I would play so many games for the country, but now I did, especially in the last one and a half to two months. This feeling was very strange. I was probably going towards the decision that this game (against Kuwait) is going to be my last."
Sunil Chhetri, synonymous with Indian football, has had a glittering career spanning over two decades. His journey began in 2002 with Mohun Bagan, and he has since become a legend in the sport.
