Remember the martyr (!) Government, which lost its majority in Lok Sabha two months back. Yes, martyr was the word used by BJP when it lost the vote of confidence in the Parliament. AIADMK and its leader were termed as 'traitor' because of their withdrawal of support. The entire opposition, which voted against the Confidence Motion, was 'conspirators' because they conspired to destabilise the so-called stable Government on various acts omission and commission. They were irresponsible because they did not offer an alternative Government before voting against the Government. Even President's action in asking the Vajpayee Government to seek the Vote of Confidence from Lok Sabha when AIADMK withdrew the support, was questioned.
