Navjot Sidhu, the former cricketer and politician, is now a clerk. In Patiala Central Jail, he has been assigned clerical work. Sidhu's responsibilities have been assigned to the jail office. In a 34-year-old road rage case, Sidhu was sentenced to a year in prison. The management is also concerned about Sidhu's safety within the facility. As a result, he has been entrusted with this responsibility.

Sidhu will work in the barracks, performing jail office duties from within the barracks. The jail office's files would be sent to Sidhu on a daily basis. He will be on duty from 9 a.m. until 5 p.m. During this time, he is free to work on the files whenever he wants.

Sidhu will not get paid in lieu of work. Sidhu has no prior administrative experience. As a result, he remains an unskilled worker. If he gets semi-skilled after three months, he will be paid 30 rupees per day, and if he becomes proficient, he would be paid 90 rupees per day.

Those who were sentenced to prison by the Supreme Court could work in factories or bakeries. Sidhu's safety, on the other hand, is a concern. Many other hardened inmates work in bakeries and factories. In such a situation, keeping Sidhu away from them, he was put in the office.
