Regular Water Supply/ Supply of 700 litres of free water for every middle-class and poor family
The AAP has vowed to provide 700 litres of free water to every household in Delhi. According to some estimates, that would cost the state some 340 crores a year.
Cheap Electricity/Lowering the present Electicity Tariff to 50%

The party promised to bring in a strong law for a Lokpal or an anti-corruption ombudsman within 15 days.
