THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: In a meeting between the BJP central leaders and the senior leaders of the party’s Kerala wing, the possibility of Kummanam Rajasekharan becoming a central minister was discussed.

The discussion surrounds Kummanam becoming the Minister of Environment. Alphons Kannanthanam and V. Muraleedharan were earlier considered by the central leadership. One more person other than Kummanam Rajasekharan might be given ministership.

As Suresh Gopi secured an impressive 2,93,822 votes from Thrissur, his name is also under consideration. The party leadership assumes that ministership for leaders in Kerala might turn out good.

During Modi’s last term, V. Muraleedharan was considered, however, it was Kannanthanam who got his place in Lok Sabha.
