@AamAadmiParty I HAVE JOINED AAM AADMI PARTY. MY MEMBERSHIP NUMBER IS 9001622247.

Ideologically, I am a communist. I have been keenly observing AAP. I think there is a space for AAP in Indian politics, that I actually expected left parties to occupy- but they could not.

Even if AAP fails, its relevance is obvious. AAP is a peculiar COLLECTIVE MOVEMENT of frustrated Indian middle class, rather than a political party in its strict conventional meaning. At the present stage, AAP has no its own ideology, and its leaders and members come from entirely different social backgrounds, and have their own different ideologies. When the issue of ideologies come to the forefront, obviously there will be hiccoughs and problems in the party.

I think I can be a part of this collective, same time preserving my personal ideology as a communist. I have took online membership in AAP. My AAP MEMBERSHIP NUMBER IS: 9001622247. I have not yet decided to involve as an activist, as I have no any political ambitions.

Aam Aadmi Party is born to fill the space in Indian politics that left parties failed to occupy due to their historically defined limitations of ideological and organizational rigidity and backwardness. I think Aam Aadmi Party and Left Parties are NATURAL ALLIES by their fundamental slogans and commitments to people. What ever positions they take on this issue now, it is inevitable that they will find a common platform in future. If BJP and INC fail to get majority in parliament along with with their respective allies in the general elections, Left parties will have to work out for a formula with Arvind Kejriwal as the first choice for the key post. IT IS GOING TO HAPPEN.

If AAP leadership fail to be very vigilant, AAP in kerala is fast turning out to be an asylum for all fortune-seeking retired corrupt government officers and political 'kick-outs' who were in the past expelled from various political parties on various charges of corruptions, immoral activities, anti-social tie-ups, organizational indiscipline etc, and have been so far compelled to stray in the political wilderness.

Fortune seekers and 'ayaram-gayarams' of politics from all nooks and corners of India have begun their latest 'seasonal' migration to AAP. AAP is 'growing' fast, but this pathological growth is going to be the greatest challenge for that newly formed political party.
