2. Arvind Kejriwal:
Arvind Kejriwal finally broke ranks with Team Anna and decided to test electoral waters. Kejriwal launched ‘Aam Aadmi Party' with an aim to fight a political battle for making the Lokpal Bill a reality.
Before launching the political party, Kejriwal adopted a shrewd ‘shoot and scoot' policy. Kejriwal used media as a weapon in launching a scathing attack on his perceived political opponents – Congress and BJP. Kejriwal first targeted Robert Vadra, son-in-law of Sonia Gandhi, for his alleged illegal and unethical links with DLF. After that, he targeted BJP president Nitin Gadkari for his role in a land scandal in Maharashtra. Kejriwal's attack almost cost Gadkari his job.
Kejriwal has been using social media successfully to gather support from his anti-corruption campaign days. Kejriwal hopes to make his presence felt in upcoming Delhi assembly elections. It seems Lokpal is no longer at no. 1 in his agenda. Now he is focusing on securing as many electoral victories as possible so that his voice is heard effectively in law making bodies like parliament and state assemblies.
