The man who gave Arvind Kejriwal the blue Wagon R car, now wants it back. Once an Aam Aadmi Party supporter, UK-based Kundan Sharma says he is now disillusioned. The software engineer, who is in Delhi at present, has let it be known that he is extremely upset with the rift in the party with top leaders Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan out of favour. He wants not just the iconic car back, but also a refund of the money he and his wife donated to the party. 

The blue Wagon-R was ubiquitous as TV cameras followed Arvind Kejriwal when he campaigned for his first election and then became chief minister of Delhi in January 2014. He even held a cabinet meeting in the small hatchback once. And when he staged a protest in the heart of Delhi, Mr Kejriwal slept on the road right next to where his blue Wagon R was parked near the Railway Ministry.

There are many people like Kundan Sharma, who are upset with AAP which was looked by them as the hope of an insurgent India. But when the mask of Aravind Kejriwal started to unveil, the people who have trusted him and put their earnest effort with a lots of hope, felt they were cheated by the so called crusader of corruption and preacher of value based politics. People, who has donated their hard-earned and valuable time for AAP has lost all the hope in the party.
