The only Indian party to make public the names of donors and the amounts they give, the AAP does not say 'no' to any sum. Contributions of even Rs.5 and Rs.10 are accepted.
The party is determined to contest around 350 Lok Sabha seats. Party sources admit that this would entail a massive expenditure - and fund collection was now a major priority.
Another AAP volunteer said even labourers, auto-rickshaw drivers and rickshaw pullers contribute.
"Many have given us anything between Rs.5 and Rs.100. Such amounts are taken over the counter and receipts with the party stamp is issued. But if the amount is more than Rs.500, then we ask for cheques," the volunteer, associated with finance but who did not wish to be identified, told IANS.
"We give receipts for each and every contribution. If anybody post cheques or Demand Draft, then the, party sends the receipt thorough the same method," he added.
