Dr D Dhanuraj, Chairman of the Centre for Public Policy Research, commented on a recent news clip by Sreelakshmi Soman of The South First about the moves made by Shri Rajendra Viswanath Arlekar after taking the oath of office as the 23rd Governor of Kerala on 2nd January 2025.

In a power play right on day one, new Kerala Governor Arlekar reinstated the security personnel who had served his predecessor, Arif Mohammad Khan, indicating that the state government could expect continuity with his predecessor. Additionally, he also summoned ADGP Manoj Abraham to the Raj Bhavan, a step political analysts view as highly significant.

Dr Dhanuraj said the BJP is setting the stage for the 2026 Assembly polls.

“After all, Arlekar is also a political figure. He may adopt a different approach from Arif Mohammad Khan, but we can certainly expect more bold moves from him,”

he was quoted as saying.
