Rajasthan deputy chief minister Sachin Pilot here on Tuesday said children continue to die in parts of the state and the problem needs to be resolved.

Pilot, who is also the state Congress chief, reiterated his earlier stance that the responsibility should for fixed for the death of infants at a Kota hospital.

He, however, expressed confidence that the steps taken by the state government will prove to be effective.

"Infants are dying continuously in different districts of the state and the problem within the system should be resolved," he said replying to a question.

He added that it would raise people's confidence in the government and send the message that it was serious.

"But we must decide the responsibility for what has happened. I still stand on my point that one person, one leader or one person does not a matter. The deficiency should be rectified and there should be confidence in the public that this incident will not recur," he said.

Pilot also cautioned that the biggest strength of a democracy are its people who show the door to those who do not perform. -- PTI
