Cricketer-turned-politician Harbhajan Singh said on Saturday that he will contribute his Rajya Sabha salary for the education and welfare of the daughters of farmers. Harbhajan, one of India’s greatest spinners, was last month elected unopposed as a Rajya Sabha member from Punjab.

“As a Rajya Sabha member, I want to contribute my RS salary to the daughters of farmers for their education & welfare. I’ve joined to contribute to the betterment of our nation and will do everything I can. Jai Hind,” he tweeted.
