Capital contest : how AAP and Kejriwal won Delhi / Depak Bajpai and Sidharth Pandey - India Rupa Publications 2020 - 148p.

It was a bitterly fought battle—the battle for the Delhi state assembly in 2020. The aam aadmi party (aap) and Arvind Kejriwal—to, a one-time self-confessed anarchist, were pitted against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Chanakya of Indian politics, Amit Shah. If it was a battle of prestige for the BJP, it was a battle of survival for the aap, for losing Delhi could have been the beginning of their end.

capital contest tells us the story of how the political disruptor managed to disrupt once again and win the capital contest. It also gives deep insights into how the aap has grown as a political entity. Weaving in candid accounts from the Party’s key decision-makers and strategists, this book is an essential read not only for those who keenly track politics and sociology, but also for all those who are interested in understanding how India has changed and continues to change and how its politicians must continuously monitor the pulse of the people so as to be in sync with a fast-changing nation.
