The battle for supremacy between the I-League clubs and the Indian Super League (ISL) took an all-new turn in June when the All India Football Federation (AIFF) General Secretary Kushal Das revealed that as per the Master Rights Agreement (MRA) signed between AIFF and Football Sports Development Limited (initially IMG-Reliance) in 2010, the ISL was set to become the top league of the country as well as a closed one. But I-League clubs are now claiming that they were never aware of such a scenario when they signed the contracts.
