In a significant political shift in southern India, V.D. Satheesan was sworn in as the new Chief Minister of Kerala. Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar administered the oath of office and secrecy to Satheesan and his ministers-designate in a ceremony lasting about one hour. The swearing-in marks a new chapter for the state’s governance.
Meanwhile in neighboring Tamil Nadu, Chief Minister Vijay extended wishes to K.A. Sengottaiyan and N. Anand as they assumed charge as state ministers, signaling ongoing cabinet reshuffling across India’s southern states.
