Aam Aadmi Party (translation: Common Man’s Party; abbreviated AAP) is an Indian political party, formally launched on 26 November 2012. It came into existence following differences between the activists Arvind Kejriwal and Anna Hazare regarding whether or not to politicise the popular India Against Corruption movement that had been demanding a Jan Lokpal Bill since 2011. Hazare preferred that the movement should remain politically unaligned while Kejriwal felt the failure of the agitation route necessitated a direct political involvement. The party’s political symbol for the 2013 elections in Delhi is a Broom.
The AAP has led several protests since its formation. Among these was a campaign against an alleged nexus between government and private corporations relating to price rises for electricity and water in Delhi. Another saw the party demanding justice for victims of sexual harassment and rape, including the introduction of a stronger anti-rape law.

The move by the Arvind Kejriwal-led party, which is contesting all 70 Assembly seats in the polls scheduled for Dec. 4, is to ensure people’s participation in governance. The common manifesto for Delhi state would include plans for making the city slum free, improving the quality of education in government schools, making health facilities accessible for all, ensuring a daily supply of 700 litres of water free of cost to each household and bringing about a reduction in power tariffs, among others. The party said it had found in a recent survey that drinking water was a major problem in most areas of Delhi.

With this the party has crossed the second milestone (after party’s registration) on its way to cleaning up the polity of the country.
With the Broom which symbolizes dignity of labour, the party hopes to clean the filth which has permeated our government and our legislature. The country needs a clean sweep of its corrupted main stream political parties.

These surveys show that AAP is being perceived as the right political alternative in Delhi. AAP would formally launch the Party’s election symbol in a public event on August 3rd.
