The Chief Minister-designate, Satheesan, along with his Cabinet comprising 20 ministers, is scheduled to take the oath of office on Monday, May 18, 2026.

This event marks a significant transition in the state’s leadership, following the recent electoral process. Satheesan, a prominent figure in the political landscape, was appointed as Chief Minister after his party secured a majority in the state assembly elections held earlier this month.

The swearing-in ceremony will take place at the state assembly grounds and is anticipated to be attended by various dignitaries, party officials, and supporters.

The formation of this new government also signifies potential changes in policies and initiatives based on the party’s manifesto, as it seeks to implement reforms that align with the needs of the constituents.
