After winning an unprecedented second mandate, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan is hugely betting on new faces — P. Rajeeve, K. N. Balagopal and P.A. Mohammed Riyas — to stimulate the economy of the State that has been hit by successive floods and COVID-19-induced lockdown. This high-stakes experiment assumes significance in the backdrop of the State facing multiple challenges in reviving the economy. Adding to the woes brought on by the intense second wave of COVID-19 is the perilous financial burden stemming from the exodus of expatriates from the Gulf Cooperation Council nations.
