Etymology
In Hindi/Urdu the word 'Aam' means common and 'Aadmi' means a man, collectively means common man. "Aam Aadmi Party" is also known as "AAP" which indicates English word "You". The idea behind naming the party as 'Aam Aadmi Party' was to give the power back to people by snatching it away from the powerful few.
Structure
The party will not have a President, Vice President or General Secretary, but will have only a national convenor who will be elected by the national executive.The Constitution of the party was also adopted at the meeting. A 30-member national executive will be the party's highest decision-making body.
