“We as a party may be new but all the members are accomplished batsmen who have already carved a niche for themselves in various spheres. Now they are all set to prove their worth in the field of politics with ethical practices being their forte,” added Chhotepur, a former state convener of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) who floated the APP after he was sacked over allegations of taking money for poll tickets.
