Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu on Friday, 5 November, addressed the media in Chandigarh and said that he has withdrawn his resignation as Punjab Congress chief, reported news agency ANI.
Sidhu had resigned from the position on 28 September and announced his decision in a letter to Congress chief Sonia Gandhi.
"I will assume charge when the new Attorney General will be appointed. It was not a matter of personal ego but the interest of every Punjabi," he added on Friday, referring to his resignation.
Amar Preet Singh Deol had resigned as the Attorney General on Monday following repeated attacks from Sidhu. Deol had represented and gotten blanket bail for former DGP Sumedh Singh Saini, who was police chief during the incidents of sacrilege and police firing on protesters.
