"She (Jwala) is going to stand up and we will fight out the case," he said at a press conference, where her coach S M Arif and Clean Sports India National Coordinator B V P Rao expressed solidarity with her.
In a surprise decision, the BAI's disciplinary committee recommended a life ban on Jwala for trying to stop some players of her franchise Krrish Delhi Smashers from playing a match against Banga Beats in the recent Indian Badminton League.
Talking about the incident, the shuttler's father said it was absurd to blame Jwala as the delay in starting the match was not caused by her.
Arif, a renowned coach, wondered how Jwala be singled out for disciplinary action and the team management is left out.
"At 7.15, the team was given and 8 o'clock the match is to be started. Just before 8, the opponents had changed the team. When they had changed the team, then naturally, she was advised, being the captain of the side, by the sponsors from Delhi not to field the team.
