The 18 conditions put forward by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) for accepting the "unconditional" support offered by the Congress and the issue-based support offered by the Bharatiya Janata Party exposes them as a political party. While I agree with 17 conditions put forward by the AAP, I object to the one on regularising unauthorised colonies. This move will lead to corruption. The AAP has also tended to travel the much-tried path because it has spotted a captive vote bank. I expected something beyond this from Kejriwal. An administration should dissuade any unapproved or unauthorised activities in the area.
