\nIn a grand consistory held in the Vatican on Saturday, 51-year-old Koovakad was elevated to the rank of cardinal by Pope Francis.
\nThe ceremony, held at the famous St Peter\u2019s Basilica and attended by clergy and dignitaries from around the world, witnessed the induction of 21 new cardinals from various countries.
\nThe ceremony began at 8.30 pm (IST) marking a procession with 21 cardinal-designated to the altar of St Peter\u2019s Basilica. Later, the Pope addressed the gathering and handed over the ceremonious cap and ring to the cardinal-designate, followed by a certificate accompanied by prayers.
