Kapil Sibal: I too would have resigned

New Delhi: Accepting actor Aamir Khan's resignation from a committee set up by him to examine a new Copyright Act for India, Kapil Sibal said, "His resignation is valid. I would have done the same. But there's no setback...someone else will take his place. We wanted this to be sorted internally, but now it will be done formally in front of the standing committee. It's very sad that someone at the meeting went and spoke outside, which is why Aamir is upset."

Khan is reportedly upset after he got into an argument with lyricist Javed Akhtar over whether songwriters should be entitled to royalties.  

Sibal's amended Copyright Act suggests that Bollywood artists like composers and music directors be entitled to a share of a film's profits.
