After securing a magnificent victory in the recently-held assembly elections, Pinarayi Vijayan has on Monday begun his second consecutive term as the Chief Minister of Kerala on his 76th birthday after swearing-in as a legislator in the Kerala assembly, presided by the interim speaker during which the elected MLAs had taken the oath. 

The state assembly has convened on Monday, days after Pinarayi Vijayan was officially sworn in as the Chief Minister of Kerala by Governor Arif Mohammed Khan. Along with Vijayan, his 20 cabinet ministers had taken the oath of office and secrecy to their respective offices. Pinarayi Vijayan's cabinet is filled with all new faces and his alliance had overwhelmingly won in the assembly polls by giving a big blow to the Congress and BJP. 

The first session of the 15th Kerala Assembly began on Monday when interim speaker Rahim had read out the oath to the elected legislators of the current assembly. Pinarayi Vijayan has been surfaced with birthday wishes and congratulatory messages for serving the state for the second consecutive time. By inducting new faces in his cabinet, Pinarayi Vijayan has written history in Kerala. 

Like his board of cabinet ministers, the Kerala assembly has also recorded a lot of firsts in its history. According to reports, this is the first time that a sitting Left regime has been elected to serve the state for the second term. The current state assembly has 53 first-time MLAs, an all-time high in recent history. 

There are ten women legislators in the assembly of which nine belong to the ruling faction and the rest - KK Rema of the RMP, will serve her term as a lone woman MLA on the opposition side. The Indian National Congress has taken the assembly as the Opposition Party and the grand old party has chosen 57-year-old VD Satheesan as the Opposition Leader in the assembly. 

As all the elected legislators had taken the oath on Monday, the assembly will be electing the full-time speaker on Tuesday. With a solid majority, CPI(M)'s candidate MB Rajesh will leniently get elected as the Speaker of the assembly. Following the election of the speaker, Kerala Governor Arif Mohammed Khan will address the assembly on Friday about the policies of the new government formed by Pinarayi Vijayan. 

On the front of potential history written by Pinarayi Vijayan, he has named a leader from the minority community to lead the Hindu affairs. It is the first time in Kerala that a leader from the minority community has been nominated to take care of the affairs of Kerala's Devaswom Board. Senior CPM leader K Radhakrishnan will be the new Minister of Devaswom Board. 

As a member of the CPM central committee, Radhakrishnan was elected from the Chelakkara constituency in the Thrissur district in the recently-held elections with a margin of around 40,000 votes. In the recently-held elections, the ruling LDF had no room for an anti-incumbency wave as it had secured a landslide victory by sweeping 99 seats in a 140-member assembly in the western state that yet another time proved to be a Leftist citadel.
