A.V. Gopinath nominated to Guruvayur Devaswom Board

Former Congress leader A.V. Gopinath has been nominated to the Guruvayur Devaswom Board, which manages the famous Sreekrishna Temple.

According to reports, Mr. Gopinath, an ex-MLA, is likely to be appointed as the new chairman of the board.

According to a social media post by the Guruvayur Devaswom, the two newly nominated members of the administrative panel, Mr. Gopinath and M.U. Shinija, will take oath on Sunday. Both were nominated to the panel by the LDF government, it said.

Mr. Gopinath, who maintained distance from the Congress leadership for some years, was suspended from the primary membership of the party in 2023 over his participation in the LDF government’s ‘Navakerala Sadas’ programme.
