<p>The BDFA Super Division league will resume on Thursday.

On Monday, referee Suresh Devraj bore the brunt of the ruckus that broke after he showed a red card to a BFC player after the game and the situation turned sour. A club official allegedly got into a physical altercation with the referees.</p>.<p>The Karnataka State Football Association secretary M Satyanarayan said: "The referees came and apologised unconditionally. So we have ended their suspension," he said.</p>.<p>The KSFA have also asked Balasubramaniam, the chairman of the referees' committee, to withdraw his resignation.</p>.<p>However, the committee will look into the matter of indiscipline.</p>.<p>"We decided to officiate the matches under protest (after the Monday's game). I don't know why they (the referees) refused to do so and why they apologised today," said SM Balu, the referee coordinator. "They said that it wasn't intentional but they have to take responsibility. We'll see what do about this as a referees' committee."</p>.<p>Following the two-day break, the league will now end on March 16 and will restart with FC Bengaluru United taking on FC Deccan. FCBU, who can secure the title with a win here, were slated to play on Friday. With the fixtures revised, they were given an option to play on Thursday or Sunday and they opted for the former.</p>.<p>"Friday was supposed to be their last game so they had booked tickets for their players for Friday night.
