when K.P. Unniferishnan (Cong) termed Mr. Stephen as -Aya Rams, Gaya Rams and Stehhen
Mr. Besat intervened to say that the irony of the situatin was that the question of defection has been pointed but by a "master detector^" (Mr. Stephen had himself defected form the Congress to the Cbngress(I) only a feW months a^o).
Mr. Desai said that in Maharashtra- it was defection from the Congress party and the Central government was:not concerned; Besides, the matter was not of an urgent public importance that it ) could be raised as an adjournment motion. ;
The Speaker later disallowed the motion. He explained that the alleged breach of faith by the goyernroent had not
