What did K. C. Venugopal, the General Secretary, say?

On this matter, K. C. Venugopal, general secretary of the Indian National Congress and a member of Parliament, said that the list of ministers who will take the oath tomorrow will be submitted to the governor by this evening. However, the names of the ministers will not be announced in advance; they will be revealed during the swearing-in ceremony tomorrow.

He said, “The UDF will present a strong team for the people, which will move forward in line with the expectations of the public.”

He also said, “The government is seriously considering the promises it made to the people, and there is no need to worry about anyone’s judgment on this.”

According to several reports, the Indian National Congress may showcase its strength at the swearing-in ceremony. Party leaders, including Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, and Mallikarjun Kharge, are expected to attend. Reports also suggest that three Congress chief ministers may be present at the ceremony.

In the recent five state elections, the only good news for the Indian National Congress came from Kerala, where the party emerged as the largest party in the state by winning 63 seats.

If we talk about the other states, the Indian National Congress did not perform particularly well. In Tamil Nadu, where the party had an alliance with Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), the Congress managed to win five MLA seats.
