As per sources CM contacted A.K. Antony, defence minister and a member of Cabinet Committee on Political Affairs, and briefed him about the intelligence report on the hartal threat on the first day of the meet.
Antony apprised Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Union Finance Minister P. Chidambaram about the situation in Kerala. Chidambaram, in consultation with petroleum minister S. Jaipal Reddy, then decided to defer the move to hike fuel price.
