I-League: Real Kashmir giving people 'hope, happiness and joy'

Real Kashmir co-owner Sandeep Chattoo talks about what has been a challenging I-League season...

Real Kashmir got promoted from the second division, made their debut in I-League two years ago, and finished third. The first club from Kashmir to play in India's then top division, in their second season, is now fourth on the table after 15 rounds, with a game in hand over the top three teams.

The Srinagar-based club has had to deal with quite a few challenges in their first two seasons in I-League, including the infamous Pulwama attack, the scrapping of Article 370 and the Kashmir lockdown.
