Karat absolves Antony in Israeli missile deal

Interesting to read CPI(M) general secretary Karat giving a clean chit to Defence Minister AK Antony in the controversial deal with Israel for Barak missiles. He did not think Antony had any black role in the deal. Then it is also the responsibility of Karat to ask his party comrade and Kerala Finance Minister Thomas Isaac to swallow without water all the abuses that are hurled upon Antony by him about the missile deal. Isaac was searching for opponents of his ‘stature’ and he found Antony suitable. Isaac’s criticism is always aimed at Sonia and Antony.

If Karat thinks Antony had no part in the deal then where from Isaac got the news? Obviously, if Antony is trustworthy, Isaac is not.
