Along with Mr. Satheesan, the UDF Cabinet will also be sworn in
CM-designate Satheesan and his Cabinet with 20 ministers will take the oath of office on Monday (May 18, 2026)
Full Council of Ministers to be sworn in on May 18 morning, says CM-designate; rumours suggest he may hold on to the Finance portfolio while allotting Home to his vanquished rival Ramesh Chennithala
Satheesan says he will not be buying a new official car and will use whatever vehicle is available
It is one thing to say that he is the leader of Malayali masses; but a bit of unpacking of that reveals the community dynamics at play
MLA-designate Ramesh Chennithala, also a contender for the CM post, left his home, sparking speculation that he may boycott the Congress Parliamentary Party meeting scheduled later in the day. NSS general secretary G. Sukumaran Nair slams Cong. for โcapitulatingโ to IUML demand and choosing Satheesan.
