Union Minority Minister A R Antulay created a furore by demanding an inquiry into the circumstances that led to the killing of Mumbai ATS chief Hemant Karkare. But before going public, he had in fact made the same demand to top state government leaders. When they refused to do so, he decided to go public with his demand and timed it with the introduction of the Centre8217;s Bills to give more teeth to the anti-terror law and set up the National Investigative Agency. Sources close to Antulay say he felt that since the state government was not acting, the right time to bring focus to the issue was to coincide it with the debate in Parliament.
