Who is Arvind Kejriwal and does his party stand a chance against BJP and Congress?

[Hamad_H]

I'll be honest, I don't know much about Indian politics and as far as I was aware there is mainly a two party dominance between BJP and Congress.

I was speaking with a friend and he mentioned Arvind Kejriwal and how he and his family support his party. I heard he is more towards the left and corruption is an important issue to his party. He is currently CM of Delhi so I assume he is not a nobody.

Is there a chance that his party could break the two party mould or does he not have enough support across the country ahead of the upcoming elections. This question is more for the Indian posters, especially after the tense events between Pak and India as all I have been reading is "Modi, Modi, Modi" and apparently Rahul Gandhi is Indian Bilawal.

He was big on anti corruption and was genuine at one point. Now he's a politician and palling around with the same corrupt folk he fought against before he became a CM. He is capable of being a good leader. Very well educated and at one point was considered to be good enough to lead a third national party. The sheen has wore off now and he's limited to just a few areas. They say his party is the party of intellectuals.
