A tender notice floated by the All India Football Federation for the live telecast of I-League football has been challenged in the Delhi High Court by the broadcaster who enjoyed the telecast rights in the previous season.
Kaleidoscope Production and Services LLP (KPS Studios) has maintained that it enjoys the I-League telecast rights at all the venues for three seasons and has pressed charges against the national federation for dishonouring the agreement.
KPS Studios maintains that the AIFF should be restrained from inviting any new broadcaster by issuing a tender notice (Notice Inviting Tender). It held that the agreement of three seasons is still valid and is “impermissible for AIFF to engage a new service provider.”
