<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Union minister Jagdish Tytler on Wednesday resigned from the Union Cabinet.
He met Congress President Sonia Gandhi and submitted his resignation which he requested her to forward to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
Tytler said he had met the Prime Minister and had told him that he would be meeting Gandhi.
Why I should put the party in trouble. I want my name to be cleared expeditiously," Tytler said adding he was not doing it under pressure but on his own.
He also said he was not claiming any high moral bound by taking this decision.
Asked whether he felt the party had not backed him, the minister said "the party has backed me 100 per cent."
"Then why are you resigning," he was asked. "I want my name to be cleared," he shot back.

Finally ring leader is gone.
