"Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party is trying to gain a foothold in Kerala with an alliance with a tiny party backed by a corporate group. The Twenty 20 gained control of the panchayat in Kerala's Kizhakkambalam seven years ago, winning 17 of the 19 wards.
The party is the CSR wing of Ernakulam based Anna-Kitex group of companies, which entered political fray in 2015. Last year, it won in three neighbouring panchayats and declared its intention to contest the assembly elections.
