The Kerala government has decided to publish wealth and asset data of its ministers on the official website of the state government.

The decision was taken after Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Wednesday recommended the same in the cabinet meeting.

The cabinet later approved Vijayan's proposal.

Based on the same, the total data of wealth and assets of all ministers as on July 31, 2018 will be published on the state government's website soon.
