Somewhere since February 2015 the AAP dream has faltered very badly. In fact, the Delhi 2015 Assembly election is the only one that the party has ever won. Last month, when the votes polled for the Punjab and Goa Assembly elections were counted, AAP that that hoped to form a government in the former and make a mark in the latter, found itself on the losing side. In Punjab it won just 20 seats in the 117-member Assembly, and in Goa, where it fielded candidates in 39 constituencies, it failed to open its account, with many of its nominees faring so badly that they had to forfeit their deposits. Goa, which is more cosmopolitan in nature, was the testing ground for AAP’s programmes, policies and campaign styles. The party failed here, slipped in Punjab and has now lost ground in Delhi. What went wrong, even AAP leaders have been left wondering.
