Antony’s bete noire K. Karunakaran, who’s leading the charge, has obliquely threatened to engineer a defection with the help of 29 Congress mlas who, he claims, are opposed to the new police policy. Karunakaran’s rather specious argument is that the political masters need to control the force if it has to function efficiently and without bias. Congressmen privately admit that Karunakaran is only whipping up anti-Antony sentiments and cashing in on the disenchantment of Congress MLAs who feel that their writ will no longer run in police appointments and transfers.
Antony has, meanwhile, said he’ll make the new policy work.
