Delhi Nair is replaced by Kerala Nair.

The huge void created by the unceremonious exit of ‘Delhi Nair’ Shashi Tharoor from the Central Cabinet was filled up by Kerala Nair K.C. Venugopal. Ostensibly Venugopal is far better a minister than Tharoor because he has not married thrice or not done any liaison work with any cricket consortium for sweat equity for his fiancé.

And undoubtedly Venugopal could improve relations between the Congress and the Nair Service Society as assistant secretary Sukumaran Nair is very happy with Venugopal's induction. So Venugopal’s immediate attention is in visiting Perunnai, then Kanichukulangara and later Bishops’s house, Alappuzha. Communal conciliation is the motto of all secular parties including the Left.

Though sworn in as the minister of state for power, his prime initiative will be the completion of Alappuzha bypass, the people Alappuzha so desire. Wishing him the best.
