This article discusses the evolution of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) from massive protests against corruption in 2011 to the present day. The AAP is the only Indian political party that emerged from a social movement and the traces of this origin are still visible in its program and activity. Its charismatic leader Arvind Kejriwal is the father of its success, but is also a slightly controversial figure who plays with different factions. The AAP might be able to play an important role in Indian politics if he repeats the Delhi success on a national scale. However, this depends on two key factors: 1. the inner construction of the party and the attractiveness of its proposal to the electorate and 2. the fate of the Indian National Congress (INC) that is visibly losing its strength. In Delhi, the AAP poached a huge number of voters from the INC. Should the Congress Party be further marginalised, the AAP could emerge as a strong force on the left side of the Indian political scene.
