The Aam Aadmi Party, or AAP, is a political party in India founded in 2012. It emerged from the anti-corruption movement led by activist Anna Hazare and aims to promote transparency, accountability, and good governance. The party's name translates to "Common Man's Party," reflecting its focus on the needs and rights of ordinary citizens. AAP gained significant attention when it won the Delhi Legislative Assembly elections in 2013, forming a government with a focus on education, healthcare, and public services. The party has since participated in multiple elections, advocating for policies that benefit the common people and combat corruption in politics.
