The health update comes amid an ongoing controversy within CINTAA, where eight elected executive committee members recently resigned from their positions, citing a loss of confidence in the association’s functioning and calling for fresh elections. The members alleged that decision-making had become concentrated around Dhillon and senior vice-president Padmini Kolhapure.
