Congress got a jolt as former Defense Minister AK Antony’s son Anil Antony turned his coat to join the BJP on Thursday.
In the presence of Union Ministers Piyush Goyal and V Muraleedharan, he joined the BJP. Anil Anthony was grateful to PM Modi for his induction into the saffron party.
Anil Antony resigned from all posts on the Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee in January following the controversy regarding the BBC’s documentary on the 2002 Gujarat riots and PM Modi.
