ATK was formed in 2014 when they started playing in the inaugural season of the Indian Super League (ISL). They were the most successful club in ISL history. In 2020, one of India’s largest football clubs Mohun Bagan joined hands with ATK and formed ATK Mohun Bagan and made its entry into the ISL.
However, changing the name to ATK Mohun Bagan hasn’t gone down well with the fanbase of Mohun Bagan. They have been demanding to remove “ATK” from the name of Mohun Bagan for a long time. Finally, now the management has started the process of removing “ATK” from the name of Mohun Bagan.
