Announcing this after a meeting of the state Cabinet, Chief Minister A.K. Antony said present Electricity Minister Kadavoor Sivadasan was shifted to Health in place of P. Sankaran, who got Tourism.
K.V. Thomas, who was holding the Tourism portfolio, was given Fisheries and Excise, the Chief Minister said, adding that there would be a major Cabinet reshuffle after the Lok Sabha elections.
