We will place his resignation letter to the executive committee meeting and whatever they decide, will be final." Though he didn't confirm any date for the meeting. On the flip side, the Mohun Bagan Secretary criticized themselves for giving that much importance to the Indian Super League. He said, "We shouldn't have given that much importance to the ISL.

It may be Calcutta Football League, it may be I-League, it may be any other competition. We will sit and discuss about it." Meanwhile after Bharatia Janata Party (BJP) and Trinamool Congress another political party, CPIM has shown their interest to support the two Kolkata giants regarding the ISL, I-League issue. ” Both the clubs have rich legacy and all the football lovers should stand unitedly beside them.
