Kerala CM Chandy to skip Modi's swearing in

Thiruvananthapuram: Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy is not attending the swearing in ceremony of Narendra Modi as Prime Minister in New Delhi tomorrow, citing pre-scheduled engagements in the state, which prompted the BJP to term

Rajagopal, who lost narrowly to Congress's Shashi Tharoor in Thiruvananthapuram Lok Sabha seat, however, said Kerala is unlikely to have representation in the Modi Ministry and held there was no justification to make a claim for that.

“I don't think Kerala will have a representation in the ministry. Kerala cannot make a claim since the state has treated BJP like an untouchable,” he told reporters.  

BJP has persistently tasted defeat in parliament and assembly elections in the state.
