Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh is once again in the news. Rajya Sabha MP Harbhajan Singh had recently left Aam Aadmi Party and joined Bharatiya Janata Party. He has approached the Punjab and Haryana High Court regarding removal of his security. In his petition, Harbhajan has sought answers from the Punjab government as to why his security has been removed.
A few days ago, a video surfaced in which Aam Aadmi Party workers had written ‘traitor’ on the outer wall of Harbhajan Singh’s house. Harbhajan has also demanded action against those who wrote ‘traitor’ in his petition.
Taking action on the petition filed by Harbhajan Singh, the Punjab-Haryana High Court has issued a notice to the Punjab Government and the Central Government. The next date of hearing of this case has been fixed for May 12. Let us remind you that after Harbhajan joined BJP, policemen were deployed outside his house in Jalandhar. But last Saturday, Harbhajan’s security was withdrawn. The former cricketer has demanded restoration of security.

Let us remind you that Raghav Chadha, Harbhajan Singh, Ashok Mittal, Swati Maliwal, Sandeep Pathak, Vikram Sahni and Rajinder Gupta, these 7 MPs have left Aam Aadmi Party and joined BJP. After this, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann addressed him as a traitor of Punjab.
If we throw light on the political career of Harbhajan Singh, he had entered the ongoing politics of Aam Aadmi Party. In March 2022, Aam Aadmi Party nominated him to Rajya Sabha from Punjab. About four months later, in July 2022, he took oath as a Rajya Sabha MP. But in April 2026, he left Aam Aadmi Party and joined BJP.
