Navjot Singh Sidhu broke his silence on Monday saying that he quit the Rajya Sabha as the BJP had asked him to stay away from Punjab and asserted that he will choose the State “hundred times” above any party or family, but kept everyone guessing on his future course of action.
The cricketer-turned-politician, who made clear his displeasure with the BJP, parried queries on whether he would join the Aam Aadmi Party, saying he will be standing wherever the interests of Punjab are served. Sidhu alleged that he was told to keep away from Punjab to “serve selfish interests”.
