Kaur was diagnosed with stage 2 invasive cancer

Navjot Kaur, wife of politician Navjot Singh Sidhu, had recently been diagnosed with stage 2 invasive cancer. During this difficult time, Sidhu himself was serving a one-year prison sentence at the Patiala Central jail in a road rage case.

On her own Twitter account, Navjot Kaur shared the news of her diagnosis and expressed her belief that Sidhu was innocent of the crime for which he was imprisoned. She awaited his release each day, stating that she was suffering even more than him. She discovered the cancer while trying to alleviate his pain and chose to share the news, attributing it to God's plan.

Sidhu was released earlier in April

Navjot Singh Sidhu, a senior leader in the Punjab Congress and former state president of the party, was released from the Patiala Central jail on April 1 after completing his one-year sentence.

The Supreme Court had sentenced Sidhu to one year of rigorous imprisonment on May 19, 2022, for his involvement in a 35-year-old road rage case. Sidhu surrendered to a Patiala court the following day. The incident occurred in 1988 when Sidhu had beaten up Gurnam Singh, who later succumbed to his injuries during a parking dispute in Patiala.
