When Inter Kashi was finally declared I-League 2024-25 champions, there were no fireworks, no medals, no trophy lifts-on Instagram: Satyamev Jayate.
For the club, which had its title and promotion in April with the undressed Committee for the All India (AIFF) Football Federation, silence did not matter this moment. It depended that they were right – and now The Arbitration Court for Sport (CAS) confirmed this. Inter Kashi won the title, Fair and Square.
The co -founder of the Aryaman Shhukla club said after the judgment after the judgment after the judgment: “Everyone in the club and its surroundings understands football … We have always believed we have the right. It just proves.”
Lonely struggle
“Absolutely,” Aryaman admitted as he asked if the waiting had disrupted planning. “We were in limb – not here, not there. We had ideas, but we couldn’t act without clarity.”
The legal path was accurate, but exhausting. “From the procedural point of view, CAS was very effective. But if it came earlier, it would help not only us but to all participants.”
And if there was any institutional support on the way? “That was a 100% solo battle,” Aryaman said. “If you are talking about external help – none was.”
“The Football Federation of the whole India crosses Inter Kashi FC to be convicted of I-League 2024-25 champions, referring to a judgment on Friday, July 18, 2025, approved the Sports Court (CAS),” AIFF read.
What now?
Now that CAS has decided in its favor, Inter Kashi is in record and-life champion and logically another team to be promoted to the Indian Super League. But there is a catch.
Given that promotion and descent has not yet been fully enforced and the future structure of the Isl still unclear, the great victory of the club landed in an uncertain territory. “One step by another,” Aryaman said. “We started planning internally again, but we still have no clarity about the situation of ISL.”
Long -term uncertainty may have taken a shine from victory, but for the time being, Inter Kashi adheres to what matters most: the league title they earned and the struggle they didn’t give up.
And for fans who remained loyal all the time?
“For our fans – thank you,” Aryaman said. “We are just in our second season as a club. The fact that we have achieved it means a lot. But that’s just the beginning.”
– ends
