Chandigarh On expected lines, Cabinet minister Tikshan Sud, who resigned a couple of days ago on “moral ground” following the death of five infants at Patiala’s Rajindra Hospital last week, will be back to work. The CM had yesterday rejected his resignation. A day later, Sud told The Indian Express, “I resigned not because someone asked me to do so. I felt this from within. The CM called me and asked me to reconsider my decision.”

Sud added that he would take back his resignation. The minister, who missed the meeting of the state cabinet yesterday, said he wanted to repent for what had happened at the hospital. The CM rejected his offer to quit, saying that it was not Sud’s fault. The medical associations are, however, demanding his resignation. Interestingly, Sud had given his resignation to his party in-charge Balbir Punj and not to the CM or the Governor. Punj had forwarded it to the CM.
