The Chief Minister had summoned a cabinet meeting here in the afternoon to take stock of the situation. After the meeting was over, the group sat down for an informal discussion, sources said.
During the discussion, Vij reportedly got upset over some issue and even offered to resign but was calmed down by Khattar, who later called him to his residence to pacify him.
Asked about the issue when he reached Ambala Cantt, Vij, who clearly looked off mood and upset, merely said, "I met Chief Minister, there is nothing more to say."
Before leaving for Chandigarh from Ambala earlier in the day, Vij had in a tweet said "today, I will meet the Chief Minister and talk to him about those who have suffered heavy loss due to the Jat agitation and will also seek action against the culprits (behind the violence and arson)".
Sources said Vij made a mention of the issue in the informal discussion with Khattar and cabinet colleagues.
