The highly anticipated Durand Cup derby between Mohun Bagan and East Bengal, set for Sunday at Salt Lake Stadium, has been cancelled due to ongoing unrest in Kolkata. The decision was made after discussions between Kolkata Police and tournament organizers. Both teams will receive one point each, and ticket holders will be refunded. Remaining matches may be moved to Jamshedpur. The unrest follows a tragic incident at RG Kar Medical College, sparking protests and a nationwide strike called by the Indian Medical Association.
