Sad ‘caste’ brought into serious Parliament debate: P Chidambaram

Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Friday, 22 December, said it is disappointing that caste is being mentioned in Parliament and urged people to move beyond these “narrow identities” in the 21st century. His remarks came days after Rajya Sabha Chairman Jagdeep Dhankhar claimed that Opposition mimicry of him was an insult to his background as a Jat, his caste.
