On Wednesday, Karunakaran had made public his intentions to form a new group and contest the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections independent of the Congress.
If that announcement was a pressure tool to get his son into the state Cabinet , it has worked just fine.
Anand Sharma said Muraleedharan will soon tender his resignation from the PCC chief's post.
Asked if Muraleedharan's induction was aimed at pacifying Karunakaran, Sharma said: "I hope the step works in that direction."
