Congress leader Navjot Singh Sidhu on Friday approached the Supreme Court seeking a few weeks' time to surrender to undergo the sentence imposed on him in a 1988 road rage case.

The apex court had on Thursday imposed a sentence of one-year rigorous imprisonment on Sidhu in the case, saying any ¿undue sympathy¿ to impose an inadequate sentence would do more harm to the justice system and undermine the public confidence in the efficacy of law.
