Thiruvananthapuram: Thomas Chandy, NCP MLA from Kuttanad, will be the new minister in the CPI(M)-led LDF ministry in Kerala, in place of A K Saseendran, who resigned as transport minister following allegations of a sleazy telephone conversation with a woman.
The decision in this regard was taken at a meeting of the Left Democratic Front (LDF) here today.
The swearing-in of Chandy will be held at 4 PM here tomorrow, NCP Kerala unit President Uzhavoor Vijayan said.
The three-time MLA is a prominent businessman and is said to the richest member of the state assembly with schools and resorts.
