Modi, who has back-stabbed every single regional party the BJP allied with by splitting those parties through threat and bribery (eg Shiv Sena, NCP). or marginalizing them as done with Naveen Patnaik /BJD, with whom they had a long standing arrangement has the temerity to speak of back- stabbing to describe the INC breaking the alliance with DMK to support the TVK. Talk of hypocrisy. In fact most regional parties have been formed by breakaways from the INC, and the INC has never retaliated or cannibalized them the way the BJP has. Yet the INC faces huge backlash for even the slightest move that allies view as not in their interests. Sometimes I think the more decent you are the more is expected from you and the more rotten you are, you can sink to any depths and people absorb it without blinking an eyelid.The utter irony.
