When questioned about his chief ministerial prospects, especially in the context of him being Dalit, Kharge said, “Why do you keep saying Dalit again and again? Don’t say that. I’m a Congressman.”

He further added, “You talk as if there’s a reserved seat for a Dalit to become the CM.”

“Can I keep identifying people by caste – he’s a Kuruba, he’s a Vokkaliga, you’re a Lingayat, you’re a Brahmin…you should understand,” he lashed at the reporters.
