Kundan Sharma, a software engineer, who expressed his disappointment over the removal of party leaders Prashant Bhushan and Yogendra Yadav, said his tweet demanding the car back was a ploy to catch attention of the party chief.
"#IDemandMyDonationBackFromAAP: My blue WAGONR,my Bike&lacs of rupees that I donated2AAP."
"We deserve what we accept for. Bigger dream of clean politics was sacrificed from winning Delhi. No one will dare to clean politics for next three decades," Sharma tweeted.
He said he was upset with the way Bhushan and Yadav were ousted from the party.
"Why were Yadav and Bhushan ousted without a probe by party's Lokpal. I supported AAP not to form government in Delhi, but the aim was to provide an alternate form of government," he said.
The blue Wagon R car gave Kejriwal his image of being a people's chief minister. During his 49-day stint and even after that, Kejriwal used the car. He later gave it to Naveen Jaihind, AAP leader from Haryana, who used it for campaigning for Lok Sabha polls in Rohtak.
"I could not reach Arvind despite several efforts. By raising the issue of the car, which gave Kejriwal a true janta CM face, I thought I could catch his attention," Sharma said.
He, however, refused to give details of the donation made by him, but said that his wife and father donated money and he had even donated his Hero Honda Passion bike.
Responding to Sharma's demand, AAP leader Ashutosh tweeted, "For the first time I am hearing someone is asking to return a donated item.
