New Delhi, March 17: Harbhajan Singh, former India cricketer, will be the Aam Aadmi Party’s Punjab candidate for the Rajya Sabha elections this year, according to the party.
By the end of this month, the Aam Aadmi Party will have five seats in the Rajya Sabha. According to sources, Harbhajan Singh may be given command of a sports institution by Punjab’s newly formed state government, led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.
Speculations about Harbhajan Singh joining the BJP were prevalent just before the Punjab election in February. “We have them [Harbhajan and former India all-rounder Yuvraj Singh] on the radar,” a senior BJP leader reportedly said. Let’s see what happens,” said a BJP leader. Later, ‘Bhajji’ dismissed the allegations.
The rumours, however, did not end there, as the veteran cricketer was seen posing with Navjot Singh Sidhu, the then-Punjab Congress chairman, who tweeted the photo to his Twitter account with the caption: “Possibilities abound in this image. With Bhajji as the main attraction “
