"I seek your time and money in this mission. Most parties are funded by big corporates for something in return but this will not happen in Aam Aadmi Party. This party would be funded by Aam Aadmi and Aam Aurat of this country. That would be the beginning of an honest and transparent politics, unfortunately which runs on black money today," says the mail.
The mail further says, "Whatever amount you contribute – small or big – is not important. Every paisa is important, because it is honest, and it will go a long way in redefining the politics. In the interest of financial transparency, we publish the names of all the donors every week on our website." There is a link given on which takes you to the Aam Aadmi Party website's page for donation for the party.
You can contribute even if you don't have debit, credit cards and internet banking. Send a demand draft or cheque in favour of Aam Aadmi Party and to A-119, Kaushambi, Ghaziabad – 201010, Uttar Pradesh.
Business Standard called on the number given in the mail to verify and was confirmed that the mail was sent out by Kejriwal himself as he wants to stay connected to aam aadmi. And to stay connected with him by just filling a form (link to which is given in the mail) and leaving your contact details. Or, you can write to him at arvindkejriwal@aamaadmiparty.org.
He has also justified his entry into politics by saying, "Our entire political system has become rotten. Most of today’s problems are due to corrupt politics. Unless it is cleansed, nothing would improve. That’s why we had to enter politics – we tried to stay away, but we realised that approach would not work."
