About the Book: Born from a powerful anti-corruption movement, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) rapidly rose to political prominence with promises of honest governance and transparency. Despite early landslide victories in Delhi and Punjab, AAP’s journey was soon overshadowed by internal power struggles, controversies, and scandals, including a high-profile liquor scam. The party’s ethical foundation weakened amid arrests of key leaders and public backlash over Arvind Kejriwal’s extravagant house renovation. Facing relentless pressure from the BJP, AAP’s dramatic fall culminated in a crushing defeat in the 2025 Delhi elections. This book offers an insider’s political analysis of AAP’s rise and fall, revealing the challenges of sustaining idealism in India’s turbulent political landscape.
