Rovers Cup

According to reports in the tele media of Kolkata, this year onwards Rovers Cup will restart in a grand manner, with huge prize money -- quoted figures are more than that in Durand -- and at least 2 foreign clubs. Any further lights on the topic?

I think Rovers as well as Durand give the clubs real time tournament scenario to test their squad ahead of I-league. For big clubs, it is the reserve bench. IMO, they do have some use.
