Bhajji with 'India's real heroes'

Ace off-spinner Harbhajan Singh described the soldiers as the "real heroes" of the country at a function organised by Border Security Force in Jalandhar.

The function was held to felicitate him for helping India win the World Cup.

Harbhajan paid tribute to the soldiers, saying that they are the "real national heroes".

"The real national heroes of the country are you soldiers and all others, including me, are not real heroes. For me, this moment will be cherished as all the real heroes are getting together to felicitate me who is not a real hero," Harbhajan said, accepting the felicitation.

Talking about the India-Pakistan World Cup semi-final clash, Harbhajan said, "You must have watched the India-Pakistan match and enjoyed it. Because of your love and affection, we won the World Cup."

BSF Inspector General Himmat Singh said, "Harbhajan has earned a name by his 'doosra'. He has brought laurels to the country and helped India win the World Cup."
