Aam Aadmi Party in Indian politics: Some innovative and erroneous acts

Abstract

Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) not only changed election politics but altered the nature of party politics. It generated new interest and enthusiasm among the people about politics but failed to sustain the same. Its hurried decisions and self-proclaimed anarchic style of functioning created problems for the party. Though AAP understood the pulse of people but failed to understand the pulse of Indian politics. It may take long for AAP to regain the confidence of people. The future trajectory of AAP depends on how best it is able to spell out alternative policy directions and how best the party is able to organize itself with clarity in its future endeavor: Much depends on the performance of AAP in upcoming Delhi election. The outcome of Delhi Assembly elections will determine the future of AAP in Indian politics.
