Siddaramaiah said that I come from a village. I never thought that I would become an MLA or Chief Minister. I came into politics by accident. No one in my family was into politics. Since coming into politics, I believe in the ideals and principles of Buddha, Basava, Ambedkar and Gandhiji. I have immense respect for the Constitution.
