Navjot Singh Sidhu’s wife quits BJP

AMRITSAR: Navjot Kaur Sidhu, chief Parliamentary Secretary and Bharatiya Janta Party MLA from Amritsar, announced her resignation from the party on Facebook. Initially flagged as an April Fools' Day prank, her next post cleared all doubts. Apparently, Navjot Kaur, and husband cricketer-turned-politician Navjot Singh Sidhu, were upset with BJP's Punjab unit as well as the Shiromani Akali Dal's leadership. Rumours of Sidhu leaving the party ahead of the Assembly elections in Punjab have been doing the rounds since quite some time. His wife's resignation is expected to give impetus to all the speculations.
