V D Satheesan was sworn in as the Chief Minister of Kerala, leading a newly formed 21-member Cabinet that reflects a blend of political dynasties, experienced leaders, and fresh faces. Among the ministers, five are political heirs, including K Muraleedharan, the son of former Chief Minister K Karunakaran, and Shibu Baby John, son of veteran leader Baby John. Veteran politician Ramesh Chennithala, who has been active in Kerala politics since 1982, continues to play a significant role as a senior member of the Cabinet. Other notable figures include Bindu Krishna, a first-time MLA and prominent woman leader, and O J Janeesh, the youngest minister at 37, who represents the Youth Congress. The Cabinet also features long-serving members like P K Kunhalikutty, highlighting the continuity of political influence within the United Democratic Front (UDF). This diverse composition aims to address the challenges faced by the state while balancing the interests of various constituencies, indicating a strategic approach to governance under Satheesan's leadership.
