At a first glance, Bant Singh appears like any other Aam Aadmi Party or AAP supporter. But in Punjab he is an icon. In 2006, Mr Singh lost his arms and a leg in an attack by the upper caste residents of his village. They assaulted him for going after his daughter's rapists, who later were imprisoned for life. In this election, he is the star campaigner for AAP. "Other parties have marginalised Dalit leaders and cut them down to size. For them we (the Dalits) are merely votebank. AAP is different. Even with my leftover limbs I shall campaign for them," Mr Singh says.
