Navjot Singh Sidhu on why he did what he did yesterday.

Sidhu tweeted a video message this morning, a day after his shock resignation as Punjab Congress Chief. "I will fight for truth until my last breath," Sidhu said in Punjabi.

Sidhu says he has no personal rivalry with anyone.

"17 years of my political career has been for a purpose, to make a difference, to take a stand and to make people's lives better. This is my only religion...

"I can't compromise with my ethics, moral authority. What I witness is a compromise with issues, agenda in Punjab. I can't disguise high command nor can I let them be disguised...

"I fought for issues concerning Punjab for a long time... There was a system of tainted leaders, officers, now you cannot repeat the same system again... I will stand by my principles."
