The new Parliament House is scheduled to be inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on May 28.
Kharge said the government had ensured election of President of India from the Dalit and the Tribal communities only for electoral reasons.

“It looks like the Modi Govt has ensured election of President of India from the Dalit and the Tribal communities only for electoral reasons (sic),” Kharge tweeted in series.
The former president Ram Nath Kovind was not invited for the new Parliament foundation laying ceremony and President Droupadi Murmu is not being invited for the inauguration of the new Parliament building, the Congress President said.
“She is the First Citizen of India. Inauguration of the new Parliament building by her will symbolise government’s commitment to democratic values and constitutional propriety,” he added. (with Agency inputs)
