The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has been doing it for some time now, hand-picking one representative after the other to be the face of Kerala in the Union Cabinet. From O Rajagopal and PC Thomas to Alphons Kannamthanam and now V Muraleedharan, this process has come with the inevitable sense of déjà vu each time a new incumbent has got named by the Delhi think-tank. Even their route to Delhi has been uniform — via the Rajya Sabha — the only aberration to the rule being Thomas.
