'Asked for my death to...': Navjot Singh Sidhu's wife says day before his release

A day before her husband's expected discharge from jail, Navjot Singh Sidhu's wife, Navjot Kaur Sidhu, today shared a wholehearted tweet on social media. She claimed that she begged God for death out of rage, but that God abandoned her in between.

Taking to her Twitter, she wrote, “Affirmations are true: made by a sound mind or out of your senses. Navjot’s love for Punjab had driven him beyond the realm of any attachment. In a fit of anger, to teach him a lesson I asked for death. God’s grace was waiting but with a rider." 

She further added, "I will give you what you have asked for but not against the will of Supreme Consciousness. So HE left me in between. Each person’s destiny and journey are different. We have no right to question it. The only person who needs correction is our own self. HIS WORLD: HIS LAWS."

Affirmations are true: made by a sound mind or out of your senses. Navjot’s love for Punjab had driven him beyond the realm of any attachment. In a fit of anger,to teach him a lesson I asked for death. God’s grace was waiting but with a rider. 1/2.
