Congress Leader Slams Government Over Rising Prices, Calls it 'Post-Election Gift'

Congress Leader Slams Government Over Rising Prices, Calls it 'Post-Election Gift'

Assam Pradesh Congress Committee president Gaurav Gogoi on Friday launched a sharp attack on the Narendra Modi-led Central government over the recent rise in prices of fuel, LPG cylinders , and essential commodities, alleging that the burden of inflation was intentionally imposed on people immediately after the completion of Assembly elections in five states. In a strongly worded statement, Gogoi said he had earlier warned that once the elections were over, the Centre would shift the burden of rising prices onto the common people. “What I had predicted has now come true, word for word,” he remarked. Referring to the recent hikes in various sectors, the Congress leader claimed that the increase in prices reflected the “failure” of the government and described it as a “post-election gift” to the people of the country. According to Gogoi, the prices of several essential commodities and services have increased shortly after the elections. He cited a rise of Rs 99 in commercial LPG cylinders, Rs 261 in small 5-kg cylinders, a Rs 2 per litre increase in milk prices, a 15 percent increase in import duties on gold and silver, a Rs 3 hike each in petrol and diesel prices, a Rs 2 increase in CNG prices, a 38 percent rise in tomato prices, and a 2 percent increase in both vegetarian and non-vegetarian meal costs. The APCC chief alleged that despite large-scale election campaigns and attempts to project austerity measures such as reducing convoy vehicles after the polls, the government could not hide what he termed its “economic failure.” He further said that ordinary citizens in Assam and across India were being forced to bear the burden of rising costs at a time when household expenses were already under pressure. Calling the situation unfortunate, Gogoi urged the government to take immediate measures to provide relief to the public from inflation and rising living costs. The statement comes amid continuing political exchanges between the Congress and the ruling BJP over inflation, fuel prices , and the broader economic situation in the country.

Trump Unloads on Taiwan and Trade After Beijing Visit

Trump Unloads on Taiwan and Trade After Beijing Visit

BEIJING: For three days in China, President Donald Trump was unusually quiet, not speaking to reporters much and even mostly staying off social media. Then he got on his plane home and unloaded. Trump's trip was unexpectedly dominated by discussions about Taiwan and the notion that Washington and Beijing could adopt a new framework for managing their complicated relationship. Chinese President Xi Jinping kicked off the whirlwind visit with a warning: If Washington mishandles its relations with the self-governing island of Taiwan, the U.S. and China could end up clashing or even in open conflict. Trump did not respond publicly, refraining from mentioning Taiwan while in Beijing. But he suggested aboard Air Force One on his way home that Xi's staunch opposition might make him rethink a planned U.S. arms sale to Taipei. Among the other topics of discussion were trade and the U.S. and Israel's war in Iran, which had been expected to take up most of the attention. Trump spent the trip overtly flattering China's leader, despite Xi not reciprocating. And the president did not push back publicly on China's characterization that he and Xi had agreed to a "constructive" new vision for dealing with their relationship issues.

TPCC Chief Urges Election Commission to Ensure Eligible Voters Are Not Disenfranchised During Special Intensive Revision Exercise

TPCC Chief Urges Election Commission to Ensure Eligible Voters Are Not Disenfranchised During Special Intensive Revision Exercise

HYDERABAD: Alleging that BJP MPs G Kishan Reddy and Bandi Sanjay Kumar had won elections through “bogus votes” and were therefore nervous about the ongoing debate over voter verification, TPCC chief B Mahesh Kumar Goud on Friday urged the Election Commission to ensure that no eligible voter is disenfranchised while conducting the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) exercise in Telangana. Pointing out that there are no elections scheduled in the state for the next two years, Mahesh said the Congress had urged the Election Commission to conduct the SIR exercise in Telangana over a one-year period instead of rushing the process. The TPCC chief, along with MLAs, MPs and MLCs, met State Chief Electoral Officer C Sudharshan Reddy at BRK Bhavan and submitted a representation on the SIR process. Addressing the media later, the TPCC chief alleged that large-scale voter manipulation had taken place across 14 states and claimed that the voter verification exercise was being carried out in an “undemocratic manner”. Referring to West Bengal, he alleged that political equations in the state were altered through voter list manipulation, resulting in parties expected to come to power losing elections. He alleged that the large-scale deletion of voters during the SIR process altered the electoral outcome in West Bengal. While 90 lakh names were deleted from the electoral rolls in the eastern state, only 30 lakh were added, he claimed.

Karnataka Muslim Leaders Criticize Congress Government's Failure to Fulfill Promises

BENGALURU: With members of the Federation of Karnataka State Muslim Organisations set to release a report on the performance of the Congress-led government under Siddaramaiah in implementing promises made in the party manifesto, there is a growing sentiment among sections of the community that the collective Muslim leadership within the government has failed. Tanveer Ahmed of the organisation said the Congress has been in power for three years, and had released its manifesto in 2023. “We have done research on whether they have fulfilled their manifesto promises,’’ he said. The report, to be released on Saturday, will include ten points, including the promise to act against organisations spreading communal hatred, take up the cow slaughter law, 4 per cent Muslim reservation (category B) promise, anti-conversion law, budget for minority educational institutions, and other issues. The hijab ban in schools and colleges was also on the agenda, but the State government revoked it this week. According to Ahmed, these promises were are not fulfilled. Asked if the convention has been organised due to the brouhaha over denial of the Davanagere South bypoll ticket to a Muslim candidate, and the party’s action against Muslim leaders, he said there is no link.

Trump and Xi Agree: Iran Should Not Have Nuclear Weapons

US President Donald Trump has said after a visit to China that Chinese President Xi Jinping also believes that Iran should not have nuclear weapons. Trump also said that China wants the Strait of Hormuz to remain open at all times, so that oil and trade supplies to the world are not affected. Trump made this statement while talking to reporters on Air Force One after a three-day visit to China. Trump said that he and Xi discussed Iran, Taiwan, rising tensions in the Middle East, and other major international issues in detail. Trump said that Xi Jinping had a very strong opinion about Iran's nuclear program. According to him, the Chinese president clearly said that Iran should not get nuclear weapons. Trump said that both countries have a good understanding on this issue. The US president claimed that the US is controlling the Strait of Hormuz at the moment. Trump said that if Iran tries to close this route, then the pressure on the US, according to him, can be increased.

India's PM Calls for Conservation Amid Treasury Depletion Concerns

His real purpose was to save the country's treasury from emptying. It is in the form of dollars and gold. Interestingly, the government had also started the work of filling the country's treasury.

US and Israel Extend Ceasefire with Lebanon Amid Ongoing Violence and Diplomatic Efforts

US and Israel Extend Ceasefire with Lebanon Amid Ongoing Violence and Diplomatic Efforts

As the US-Israeli war on Iran entered its 78th day on Saturday, May 16, Washington announced a 45-day extension of the Israel-Lebanon ceasefire after negotiations with both sides in the US capital Washington. US State Department spokesperson Tommy Pigott said the agreement included separate political and military discussions aimed at maintaining border stability and advancing diplomacy. Political meetings are scheduled for June 2 and 3, while defence officials from Israel and Lebanon are set to meet at the Pentagon on May 29. Lebanon welcomed the extension and called for stronger oversight mechanisms and US-backed guarantees to ensure compliance with the agreement. Lebanese officials said implementation must follow a clear and verifiable framework to avoid setbacks seen in earlier arrangements. Israel’s ambassador to the United States, Yechiel Leiter, described the talks as constructive and said Israel’s security would remain central during future negotiations. The diplomatic breakthrough came despite continued violence. Lebanese authorities said Israeli strikes killed at least 11 people on Saturday. The New York Times reported that US President Donald Trump has not decided whether to expand military action against Iran. The report said American and Israeli forces are carrying out extensive preparations while the White House reviews possible scenarios for further escalation. The Israeli military said warning sirens sounded in the Majdal Shams area of the occupied Golan Heights after a suspected hostile aircraft alert that was later determined to be false. No casualties or damage were reported. Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei quoted from Aime Cesaire’s *Discourse on Colonialism* in remarks directed at the United States, accusing Washington of destructive regional policies. Iran’s semi-official Tasnim news agency published a handwritten message attributed to Lieutenant General Abdolrahim Mousavi before his death during the opening phase of the conflict on February 28. The note reflected on the temporary nature of power and material possessions. Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the conflict would increase economic strain inside the United States, citing rising Treasury yields and growing pressure on consumer borrowing and energy prices. Iran’s mission to the United Nations accused Washington of overstating international support for a Bahrain-backed draft resolution on the Strait of Hormuz. Tehran warned countries supporting the proposal could bear responsibility if regional tensions intensify further.

Iran Urges India to Continue Investing in Chabahar Port Amid US Sanctions

Iran Urges India to Continue Investing in Chabahar Port Amid US Sanctions

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi has urged India to continue investing in the Chabahar project and play an active role in promoting peace in the Middle East. After the meeting of the BRICS foreign ministers, he praised India's diplomatic image, saying that India is a friend of all the countries of the Persian Gulf and its role is very important. Despite the economic sanctions imposed by the United States on Iran, India granted a special "waiver" for the port of Chabahar. However, the moratorium has since expired on April 26, 2026. India has been cautious about proceeding with the project. This is why the Modi government has not made any direct allocation for Chabahar in this year's budget. Chabahar port is a "golden gateway" for India to reach Central Asia and Europe. India can bypass Pakistan through this route and connect directly with Afghanistan and the Caucasus region. According to the Ministry of External Affairs, India is working on a "Chabahar-Birani" project, in which, according to the Ministry of External Affairs, the Iranian side can operate on a transnational basis.

Congress Leader Ramesh Chennithala Set to Join Satheesan Cabinet with Key Portfolios

Congress Leader Ramesh Chennithala Set to Join Satheesan Cabinet with Key Portfolios

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Senior Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala, who is upset after being sidelined in the chief ministerial race, is set to join the V D Satheesan cabinet with Home and Vigilance portfolios. In a bid to placate the leader, who stayed away from party meetings as a mark of protest, the high command directed the CM-designate to induct him into the cabinet with the high-profile portfolios. Sources said the high command move was aimed at striking a balance between party factions. The crucial intervention came amid reports that Chennithala might refuse to join the cabinet. Though there was a consensus that Chennithala should be given the two crucial portfolios, some leaders close to Satheesan were reportedly against it. However, the high command made it clear to Satheesan that Chennithala was fully eligible for the role, considering his seniority. Also, the high command reminded the CM-designate that Chennithala was one of the contenders for the top post, said sources. There are indications that Chennithala may take up the offer. Earlier in the day, after Satheesan paid a visit to Chennithala’s residence, AICC general secretary Deepa Dasmunsi also met him and held an hour-long discussion to convince him to join the team. Meanwhile, the Congress and the UDF have initiated informal discussions on cabinet formation. The Satheesan cabinet to be sworn-in on Monday would be a mix of seniors and fresh faces, while maintaining community equations and regional balances. The Congress will have 11 ministers, including the CM, in the 21-member cabinet. The K C Venugopal camp is keen to ensure sufficient representation in the team. Besides Chennithala, a slew of senior leaders, including KPCC chief Sunny Joseph,K Muraleedharan,Thiruvanchoor Radhakrishnan, KPCC working presidents A P Anil Kumar and P C Vishnunadh, in addition to M Liju, are expected to make it to cabinet.

US-China Summit: A New Equilibrium Elusive as Structural Differences Persist

US-China Summit: A New Equilibrium Elusive as Structural Differences Persist

Beyond the effusive words of a fawning US President and the cold political formulations of the stolid Chinese leader at the Beijing summit, what stands out is the difficult quest to build a new equilibrium between the world’s two most consequential powers. Both sides have projected the meeting as a success. Donald Trump highlighted several commercial agreements and China’s support for reopening the Strait of Hormuz. Xi Jinping declared that the two leaders had reached a common understanding on building a framework for “constructive strategic stability”. But the relationship between Washington and Beijing is likely to remain volatile and unpredictable. The differences between the two powers are structural and enduring. The Beijing meeting will be followed by Xi’s visit to Washington DC in September, and the two leaders are expected to meet again on the margins of multilateral gatherings later this year. The trajectory of US-China relations will remain the defining geopolitical story of 2026. The difficulty of building a stable relationship between Washington and Beijing reflects a simple fact: The balance of power between them has changed significantly. When he last visited Beijing nine years ago, Trump appeared to believe that China could be pressured into making major concessions. Today, his approach is more flexible and respectful, reflecting the reality of China’s increased economic, technological, and military strength. Xi, for his part, approaches the relationship with greater confidence. He appears convinced that the US is in relative decline and that China is now better placed to shape the terms of engagement. Beijing’s objective is to secure greater recognition of its interests and to ensure that Washington respects what China defines as its core concerns, especially on Taiwan. Xi was blunt in warning Trump at the summit that mishandling Taiwan could lead to military conflict between the two powers. Trump, notably, avoided any public reference to the issue. That silence should not be interpreted as evidence that Washington has abandoned strategic competition with China or accepted Beijing’s primacy in Asia. Nor is Xi likely to be swayed by Trump’s flattery. Chinese leaders have long assumed that competition with the US will remain a durable feature of the international system. For Asia, and for India in particular, the challenge is to recognise that the US-China relationship will continue to combine elements of rivalry and selective cooperation. The most effective hedge against uncertainty in US-China relations lies in accelerating the growth of India’s own economic strength, technological capabilities and military power. In a world shaped by the fluctuating balance between Washington and Beijing, India’s strategic autonomy will rest less on what others do and more on what it is able to build at home.

Uttar Pradesh Cabinet Expansion: Ministers' Portfolios Remain Unknown Amid Deadlock

The third cabinet expansion of the Yogi Adityanath government in Uttar Pradesh has completed a week, but the portfolios of the new ministers are still not known. The sworn-in honorable ministers are currently confined to their empty chambers, official bungalows and shiny government vehicles and their portfolios are not yet known. It was expected that the distribution of portfolios would be done soon after Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath met Home Minister Amit Shah and National President Nitin Navin in Delhi, but the fact is that there has been a'deadlock'between Delhi and Lucknow over the portfolios. It is believed that the departments like PWD, Urban Development, Health and Information are stuck in Delhi and Lucknow, but no formula is being worked out yet. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is also adamant about some ministries. Not only the talk of portfolios, but the sources of changing the portfolios of the deputy CM are also stuck.

Israel and Lebanon Agree to Extend Ceasefire and Hold Talks Amid Ongoing Conflict

Israel and Lebanon Agree to Extend Ceasefire and Hold Talks Amid Ongoing Conflict

WASHINGTON: Israel and Lebanon agreed to extend a ceasefire and hold expanded talks on a political settlement, the United States announced Friday, even as Israel carried out new strikes that it insists are not subject to the truce. Israel has been pounding Lebanon and invaded its south in response to fire from Hezbollah, the Iranian-backed Shia movement that is not part of the ceasefire diplomacy. Envoys from Israel and Lebanon's government, which has struggled to restrain Hezbollah, met for two days in Washington and said they would extend the ceasefire that was set to expire Sunday. The cessation of hostilities "will be extended by 45 days to enable further progress," State Department spokesman Tommy Pigott said. He said that the State Department would hold negotiations aimed at reaching a permanent political agreement on June 2 and 3 and that the Pentagon would bring together delegations from the countries' militaries on May 29. Lebanon's delegation said in a statement that the ceasefire extension and opening of military talks would offer "critical breathing room for our citizens" with a goal of "lasting stability." In an implicit rebuke to Hezbollah, Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam told an NGO dinner in Beirut that his country has had "enough of these reckless adventures serving foreign projects or interests." The latest brought "a war we did not choose but was forced upon us, which led to Israel occupying 68 towns and villages," he said. The United States steadfastly backs Israel, with which it launched attacks on Iran on February 28, but has also gently voiced unease about Israeli troops' encroachments into southern Lebanon.

Gujarat's Post-Election Reality: Empty Pockets and Lost Jobs

May 15, 2026. At six o'clock in the morning, a father is standing in the kitchen. There is a gas cylinder bill in his hand, Rs 897. The election ink on his finger is still pale. Till yesterday, the same finger had voted for change. Today, the same finger is checking the empty pocket. And just at this moment, thousands of kilometers away, from a big stage, "Save fuel, carpool, don't buy gold, the country needs your support!" Hey brother, this is the sermon. Salt on the wound? Helicopters flew, crackers were burst, rallies were held, road shows were held and crores of smoke was emitted. Then the austerity was not remembered. After the elections were over, the country suddenly woke up from its slumber. Gujarat's dream of contributing 1 trillion to a 5 trillion economy has turned upside down. Yes, but 6 lakh jobs have been lost in Gujarat. Gujarat's food inflation has come down from 95% to 9.5%.

Gujarat BJP Prioritizes Seniority and Caste in Electing President and Vice-President

Gujarat BJP Prioritizes Seniority and Caste in Electing President and Vice-President

After the elections in the bodies of Swaraj, the election of the president and vice-president is now to be held early next week. The Sabarkantha district panchayat and Himmatnagar municipality are stuck. In such a situation, the state BJP gives priority to seniority, caste, lobbying. In Sabarkantha district panchayat and Himmatnagar municipality, there is an OBC female reserved president seat and in Himmatnagar municipality, there is એસ.સી. There is a male seat in which there is no competition. There is only one main candidate. In Sabarkantha district panchayat, the names of two women representing Talod and Idar taluka are at the forefront. The MLA, MP are both from Thakor Samaj who represent Talod province. To save the Patel community, the issue of balancing the caste equations by choosing a woman from Idar taluka and deciding the executive president has been stuck. Similarly, in Himmatnagar municipality, Arun Kadiya's family has been associated with the BJP since the rise of the BJP. On the other hand, if one looks at the seniority, then there is no contest between the two female candidates.

Indian Minister Accuses Rahul Gandhi of Not Following Protocol for Foreign Trips

Indian Minister Accuses Rahul Gandhi of Not Following Protocol for Foreign Trips

A day after the Bharatiya Janata Party questioned the “undeclared” and “secret” foreign trips of Leader of Opposition Rahul Gandhi, Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju accused the senior Congress leader of not following the protocol mandated by his status as an MP. Rijiju alleged that Rahul Gandhi has not been sharing details regarding his trips ever since he became an MP, repeatedly leaving his security apparatus in a tizzy. Reacting to similar allegations by the BJP a day earlier, the Congress countered the accusations against its senior leader by terming them a tactic to deviate attention from “setback after setback” to the foreign policy of the BJP-led government. “A serious question has been raised against Rahul Gandhi … if any MP is going on a foreign trip, the Lok Sabha or the Rajya Sabha , as the case may be, are supposed to be intimated three weeks in advance; the Ministry of External Affairs and Home Affairs also have to be informed,” Rijiju said. “In case of the MHA, especially in regard to the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act, if foreign-sponsored hospitality is to be accepted, information has to be provided. Every MP can travel abroad … Rahul Gandhi’s biggest problem is that he never gives information whenever he travels abroad,” he alleged. Details of where he stays and whom he meets, Rijiju added, were also not shared by the LoP, which had also become a matter of concern for agencies mandated to provide him security. “If something unfortunate occurs, questions will be raised against the government; Rahul Gandhi ji is also Leader of Opposition, if something happens with him, the government will have to answer,” Rijiju said. “Rahul Gandhi ji does not share any details with agencies, this too is a serious matter. Especially (in regard to) the 54 times he has gone on foreign trips between 2004 and 2026, there are some instances where there is no information at all; we do not want to get after him … but when taxpayers’ money is involved, questions will certainly be raised,” he added.

BRICS Foreign Ministers Meeting Ends Without Joint Statement Due to Iran-UAE Disagreement

BRICS Foreign Ministers Meeting Ends Without Joint Statement Due to Iran-UAE Disagreement

With Iran and UAE divided on the war in West Asia, India was unable to bridge the diplomatic gap within the BRICS Foreign Ministers and could not come up with a joint statement after the two-day meeting. Instead, Delhi on Friday issued a chair statement and outcome document trying to reflect the divergences between Iran and UAE on the war in West Asia. But, it also flagged two paragraphs on Palestine and Yemen to which Iran is learnt to have objected, since they targeted Hamas and Houthis. According to paragraph 21 of the chair’s statement issued after the meeting, “There were differing views among some members as regard to the situation in the West Asia/Middle East region. BRICS members expressed their respective national positions and shared a range of perspectives.” It said that “views articulated by them included the need for an early resolution of the current crisis, the value of dialogue and diplomacy, respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, upholding international law, the importance of safe and unimpeded flow of maritime commerce through international waterways, and the protection of civilian infrastructure and civilian lives.” “The impact of recent developments on the global economic situation was stressed by many members,” it said, indicating the economic impact and rise in energy prices as a result of the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. In fact, at least two paragraphs in the 63-paragraph chair statement and outcome document had clearly spelt out differences, with an asterisk marked footnote, “*A member had reservations on some aspects of this paragraph”. In both cases, Iran was the member concerned. The BRICS grouping has not been able to come to a consensus on the war in West Asia as two of the members – the UAE and Iran — have not been able to agree on a common language on the conflict. With consensus eluding the grouping in the past, Delhi had issued a Chair’s summary on April 24 stating that “members expressed deep concern on the recent conflict in the Middle East (West Asia) and offered views and assessments on the matter”. In early March, Tehran had reached out to Delhi to take the lead in issuing a statement on behalf of the BRICS, currently chaired by India, condemning the US and Israeli strikes against Iran in the previous two weeks. This put Delhi in a diplomatic pickle given that it had not taken sides in the ongoing conflict. According to paragraph 26, “The Ministers recalled that the Gaza Strip is an inseparable part of the Occupied Palestinian Territory. They underlined, in this regard, the importance of unifying the West Bank and the Gaza Strip under the Palestinian Authority, and reaffirmed the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination, including the right to their independent State of Palestine. They called on the international community to support the Palestinian Authority in undergoing reforms to fulfil the Palestinians’ legitimate aspirations for independence and statehood.” And it had “*A member had reservations on some aspects of this paragraph”. It is learnt that Iran had reservations since the paragraph gives credence to the “Palestinian Authority” and doesn’t give any space to Hamas. And in paragraph 29, it said, “The Ministers stressed the importance of ensuring the exercise of navigational rights and freedoms of vessels of all states in the Red Sea and Bab Al-Mandab Strait, in accordance with international law…”

Kerala CM-Designate Vows to Reduce Extravagance Amid Financial Constraints

Kerala CM-Designate Vows to Reduce Extravagance Amid Financial Constraints

A day after the Congress high command picked him as Kerala’s Chief Minister-designate, V D Satheesan noted that the state’s finances were not in a position to support any extravagance, and said he would use the existing official car of the CM instead of buying a new one and that his convoy would have a “minimum number” of vehicles. “When the financial situation is bad, we have to create a model by reducing extravagance. I will use the existing car (of the CM). I am not bothered about its colour,” he said. Satheesan said it was important for those at the top to send a message against extravagance. “If I move along the roads with great pomp and show, people will laugh at me. I have told police not to cause any inconvenience to the people while I am travelling. My convoy should have only a minimum number of cars. I am not ridiculing anyone who may have moved with a large convoy of vehicles; they might have their reasons for that. But I do not need it. Those sitting at the top should send a message. If those in the top positions display pomp, others will also imitate them. Kerala does not have enough resources for such extravagance,” he said. Earlier on Friday, Satheesan met former chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan as well as several senior Congress leaders. He became emotional while visiting the family of late Congress leader G Karthikeyan. The CM-designate also met senior Congress leader Ramesh Chennithala, who was an unsuccessful contender for the CM post. “I am very close to Ramesh. He is my leader and elder brother. I am sure that I will have his support when I assume office as chief minister. On his joining the Cabinet, the party will take a decision after discussing with him,” Satheesan said. Chennithala said, “I am happy that Satheesan has been made the chief minister. It is up to the party to decide whether I should be in the Cabinet. I have not put forward any condition.” Satheesan and his Cabinet are scheduled to be sworn in on Monday. The Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF), which defeated the incumbent Left Democratic Front (LDF) in the Assembly election by a landslide, has held preliminary discussions about Cabinet formation following the conclusion of a 10-day process to pick the chief minister. UDF convener Adoor Prakash told reporters that the UDF would hold a larger discussion to finalise the size of the Cabinet. The final picture on the number of Cabinet berths allotted to each party in the alliance will emerge on Saturday. In 2021, apart from the chief minister, Kerala had 20 other ministers.
