New Delhi, Mar 16: As speculations around Irrfan Khan's ill-health had been mounting, the actor put rumours to rest today by posting a Tweet on his account.

Khan has been diagnosed with NeuroEndocrine Tumour and will be travelling abroad for treatment.

A few days back the acclaimed actor had released a statement about suffering from a “rare disease” on social media. Ever since then there were several reports hovering around the same, which claimed that the actor was suffering from brain cancer.

This left his family and Bollywood fraternity aghast as without any confirmation by any close sources, reports of his ill-health with bizarre speculations started doing the rounds.

The actor, 51, said it has been difficult dealing with the disease but people around him have given him hope and support to fight it.

"The unexpected makes us grow, which is what the past few days have been about. Learning that I have been diagnosed with Neuro Endocrine Tumour as of now has admittedly been difficult, but the love and strength of those around me and that I found within me has brought me to a place of hope," Irrfan said in a statement.

"The journey of this is taking me out of the country, and I request everyone to continue sending their wishes," he added.

The 'Piku' actor also addressed the rumours surrounding his illness, saying neuro is not always about brain but thanked those who did not speculate about his health.

The actor's wife, Sutapa Sikdar who is a producer and writer had also opened up on social media about the family’s struggle. In her gracious Facebook post on behalf of her family, she referred to her husband, as her best friend and partner.

While Irrfan has been struggling with NeuroEndocrine Tumour, his family and friends have stayed beside him in this battle to help him survive the dreadful disease.

Mar 11: Thirteen of the 22 rebel MLAs in Madhya Pradesh have given an assurance that "they are not leaving the Congress", senior party leader Digvijaya Singh said on Thursday while expressing confidence that the Kamal Nath-led government in the state will win a floor test.

"We are not keeping quiet. We are not sleeping," Singh told PTI, a day after Congress leader from the state Jyotiraditya Scindia quit the Congress and 22 MLAs submitted their resignations from the assembly in Madhya Pradesh.

Scindia was offered the post of Madhya Pradesh deputy chief minister but wanted his nominee, Singh said. However, Kamal Nath refused to accept a "chela", he said.

Scindia, he said, could have been a Congress nominee to the Rajya Sabha but "only Modi-Shah" can give a Cabinet post to the "over-ambitious" leader.
