Navjot Singh Sidhu formally quits BJP

Chandigarh, Sept 14 (IBNS) : Former Bharatiya Janata Party MP Navjot Singh Sidhu on Wednesday formally resigned from the party, days after floating his own political outfit—Awaaz-e-Punjab, media reports said.

Sidhu sent his resignation to BJP President  Amit Shah.


The cricketer-turned-politician  had resigned from the Rajy Sabha on July 18, stoking speculations over the possibility of his joining the Aam Aadmi Party.

On September 8, he launched the 'Awaaz-e-Punjab', saying his move is to fight against the system and the leaders who had "ruined" Punjab.

The new party will contest all 117 assembly seats in the Punjab Assembly elections to be held early next year.
