A.K
Antony
The
surprise of the cabinet expansion was the
appointment of Antony, former Kerala chief
minister with a clean reputation, to the
prestigious Defence portfolio as the Defence
Minister.
|
With
A. K. Antony making it to the Defence Ministry,
Kerala will have its second Defence Minister
after nearly 50 years. The only other Keralite
to hold this office was V. K. Krishna Menon
who was in Nehru's Cabinet.
For
Mr. Antony, this will be his second stint
in the Union Cabinet - having earlier been
Minister of Civil Supplies, Consumer Affairs
and Public Distribution in the P.V. Narasimha
Rao Government from 1993 to 1995. This stint
was cut short when he stepped down owing moral
responsibility for a sugar scam.
Truncated
tenures in office are something that has dogged
Mr. Antony's career. Thrice Chief Minister
of Kerala, he never served a full term. The
youngest Chief Minister of the State, at 37,
in 1977, he held office for a year. His second
stint in 1995 was just as short and the third
run after the Congress-led United Democratic
Front's landslide victory in 2001 was cut
short in 2004 following the drubbing the party
received at the hustings in the 13th Lok Sabha
elections.
Mr.
Antony entered politics by organising students
of his native Cherthala taluk in Alappuzha
district. He was the youngest person ever
to be made president of the Kerala Pradesh
Congress Committee.
With
time, Mr. Antony came to lead his own group
in the faction-ridden Congress in the State.
Mr.
Antony is known to be guarded in decision-making
and to toe the middle path.
