The naissance of the Aam Aadmi Party and its eventual success must and foremost be attributed to the mammoth negative perception of the wrongdoings of the UPA regime in the public psyche. India Against Corruption was a response, constructed upon the rightful anger of the tax-paying citizens and some brilliant perception management strategists who later on donned the (now) infamous cap of the Aam Aadmi. The re-election of the AAP in 2015 -- despite the fiasco in 2013 and the powerful rise of the Narendra Modi-led BJP in the Centre -- was largely due to the desire of the people to see their ‘experiment’ reach its logical conclusion. But today, despite not facing any major charges of corruption or even bad governance per se, Arvind Kejriwal’s AAP finds itself with one of the least popular political voices in the nation. The results of the MCD elections are but a mere confirmation of the very evident disenchantment of the aam aadmi with the party that goes by its name.
