Harbhajan Singh - Geeta Basra blessed with a baby girl

India's veteran off-spinner Harbhajan Singh and his actress-wife Geeta Basra have been blessed with their first child, a baby girl. The baby was born in London on Wednesday, to the couple who got married in October last year. Harbhajan Singh's mother Avtar Kaur confirmed the news to Hindi news daily ‘Daily Bhaskar’. She also told that the baby and her mother, Geeta, were perfectly healthy after the delivery. Harbhajan and Geeta tied the knot on October 29, last year after five years of dating.
Reports of Geeta being pregnant were already doing the rounds since April this year. Geeta also had a baby shower last month. While the duo didn’t confirm the news then, the couple found it hard to evade the limelight prior to the delivery. Harbhajan soon moved to United Kingdom to be with his wife.

I was asked to stay away from Punjab: Navjot Singh Sidhu

Navjot Singh Sidhu on July 25 said he quit Rajya Sabha as 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 BJP, parried queries on whether he would join 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,” indicating that the BJP was acting under its ally Shiromani Akali Dal’s pressure as Akalis and Sidhu have had a long spell of hostility. Targeting BJP, Sidhu said he delivered the prestigious Amritsar seat to the party during adverse circumstances but was “drowned in the Modi wave” in 2014, when he was asked to shift from the constituency. “It happened three or four times,” he said, adding that it cannot be “tolerated” even once as “no party in the world is bigger than Punjab for me.
