"I congratulate you on being sworn in as the Chief Minister of Kerala after the resounding victory of the Left Democratic Front in the recent elections to the Kerala State Assembly," Jayalalithaa said in her letter to Vijayan here.
"I convey my best wishes to you to lead the state of Kerala to an era of growth and prosperity under your able leadership," she said.
