Thiruvananthapuram, May 2 : Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, who on Sunday created history by leading the Left Democratic Front government to retain power, will have a lot of work to do when he sits down to select his team, as he is short of seasoned veterans, especially from his own CPI-M.
Following the norm of not fielding all those CPI-M candidates who have had two successive terms, five veteran Ministers Thomas Issac (Finance), A.K. Balan (Law), G.Sudhakaran (Public Works), C.Raveendranth (Education), and E.P. Jayarajan (Industries) failed to get a ticket.
