On being asked if he will join the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) after his resignation from BJP, she said that he will decide on the matter and it’s better if it comes from his mouth only. Both Navjot Singh Sidhu and his wife are reportedly upset over the BJP forming an alliance with the Akali Dal in Punjab. Navjot Kaur said that if there is a clear message that they will fight together, there is no door for his husband.

Navjot Kaur also slammed the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD)-BJP alliance government in Punjab, reported The Statesman. “In my opinion the BJP-SAD government has not performed well in Punjab. They have failed to fulfill promises,” she said. She further added that “AAP is a new alternative in the state.” Navjot Singh Sidhu announced his resignation from the Rajya Sabha — having been nominated by the BJP in April — on the first day of the Monsoon Session of the Parliament. Meanwhile, Navjot Kaur Sidhu, who is currently the chief parliamentary secretary in Punjab, recently did a U-turn after having announcing her decision to quit BJP, reported The Indian Express.
