In 1970 he received the MSc degree from the University of Edinburgh and wrote his thesis on "Language and politics in modern India".
During his time at the university, he was politically active in anti-apartheid protests, for which he was reportedly expelled. The expulsion was later reversed based on his good behaviour.
Karat combines theory and practice effortlessly. Well-versed in Marxist philosophy, he has a firm grip on making theoretical analysis of political developments amid his busy schedule of organisational activities. He has penned excellent studies and articles in newspapers and journals. His studies on agrarian relations in the Malabar region of Kerala are much valued and discussed in academic circles. His post-graduate thesis, 'Language and politics in Modern India', was also notable.
