Political Parties and Populist Policies in Contemporary India: Some Reflections on AAP by Sumona DasGupta 15-29 Political Parties and Populist Policies in Contemporary India: Some Reflections on AAP ∗ Sumona DasGupta Introduction There is little definitional clarity around the term populism. Though the use of this term has proliferated in the last decade, in common parlance there appears to be a pejorative even alarmist connotation associated with it because of its association with authoritarian leaders and policies that exploit the fears and anxieties of the masses for short term gains. A more nuanced view of populism however situates it in the context of the disillusionment of working classes with the crisis of what Nancy Fraser calls modern hegemonic, globalized, financialized forms of capitalism. Some have even viewed it as a counter concept to neoliberal politics which remains committed to free movement of capital and deregulated finance despite bringing in some mitigating politics of recognition (Frazer 2018). Regardless of the light in which populism is viewed there are mixed views on how it is connected with democracy and democratic institutions. In this paper we move away from a value laden connotation of populism as an ideology and stay with an understanding that resonates the most easily with an Indian context - namely any policy, strategy, and movement that is redistributive in nature and as such favours the common person particularly those in subordinate positions, over the elite typically represented by large business and financial interests.

    92nd Annual Report 2014-2015 Part-I University of Delhi Delhi www.du.ac.in UNIVERSITY OF DELHI 92nd ANNUAL REPORT PREFACE The University of Delhi, established in 1922, and rated as the premier university in India under several ranking systems, has continued to conserve its legacy and to also forge ahead with Innovations and Best Practices in higher education. It is a pleasure to present the 92nd Annual Report, largely covering the period from 1st April 2014 to 31st March 2015 during which substantial achievements have been noted. The university was honored with the prestigious “Visitor’s Award 20015 for Innovation” from the President of India, for developing a rapid Tuberculosis Detection Kit. The DST PURSE grant received was again the highest in the country in the category of universities. The Innovation Projects, a unique programme of support for undergraduate colleges, has created a vibrant culture of research that is bringing in publications, startups, patents, industry interfaface and business incubation. The Cluster Innovation Centre with its range of courses has introduced new pedagogical practices that identifyfy real life problems in India and seek solutions through hands-on projects. The documentation of innovative methodology and outcomes is being undertaken systematically through e-journals. Despite the large enrolment of over 6 lakh students, the Unniversity has focused on different needs of different people and imparted academic and logistical support in many ways. Inclusive principles of education have ensured an outreach to all, especially to students with disability and those from disadvantaged backgrounds. Popular programmes such as the Gyanodaya Express- “College on Wheels”, which conducted projects on the train and in eight states of the north-east this year, promoted concepts of heritage, diversity and experiential learning for almost 1000 participants.

    Political Parties and Populist Policies in Contemporary India: Some reflections on AAP Sumona DasGupta There appears to be little definitional clarity around the term populism. Though the use of this term has proliferated in the last decade, in common parlance there appears to be a pejorative connotation associated with it and mixed views about how populism is connected with democracy and democratic institutions. In this paper we move away from a value laden understanding of populism as an ideology and stay with an understanding that resonates the most easily with an Indian context - namely any policy that is redistributive in nature and as such favours the common person particularly those in subordinate positions over the elite typically represented by large business and financial interests. The contrast between the people and elite in terms of strategies, movements, policies, organization is perhaps the only way the term populism can retain its analytical usefulness without getting bogged down in polemical discussions as to whether populist movements/policies represent the ideological right or the left, whether it is authoritarian or democratic in its origin, whether it represents a movement or simply a discursive style. This paper will examine selected populist policies launched in contemporary India by a party that grew out of a popular movement against corruption namely the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) which by its very name creates a implicit contrast between the ‘people” and the elite. By focusing on some of its key populist policies we seek to gain a deeper understanding of how a movement “for the people” transitioned into a political party which then had to make policies that were seen to be pro “aam aadmi” and what this populism implies in terms of democratic decision making and longer term impacts on the economic and political front.
