“What A Picture…”: Harbhajan Singh Congratulates Bhagwant Mann

Former India cricketer Harbhajan Singh congratulated Bhagwant Mann on being elected as the new chief minister of Punjab. This comes after the Aam Aadmi Pary swept 92 of the 117 Assembly seats, and dominated the Indian National Congress (INC) and the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD)-Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) alliance. Mann, who is also an MLA from the Dhuri Assembly Constituency, will take oath as the new CM of Punjab at Khatkarkalan in Nawanshahr district. Taking to Twitter, Harbhajan shared a heartwarming photo of Mann hugging his mother.

“Congratulations to @AamAadmiParty and My friend Bhagwant Mann on Becoming our New Chief minister. Great to hear that he will be taking oath as the new CM in Bhagat Singh’s village Khatkarkalan, What a picture…this is a proud moment for Mata ji,” Harbhajan captioned the post.
