A party to become recognized State Political Party is to get (i) In general election, the concerned party should get minimum 6% of valid vote. (ii) In a state assembly elections the party should get victory in atleast 2 constituencies. (iii) In general election, the concerned party should get minimum 8% of vote. (iv) In a state assemble elections the party should get victory in atleast 4 constituencies.
(i) and (ii) are correct
Recognition of a State Party is governed by the Election Symbols (Reservation and Allotment) Order, 1968, as amended by the Election Commission of India.
The basic and most widely cited condition is that the party secures at least 6% of the valid votes polled in the State in a general election and also wins at least 2 seats in the Legislative Assembly of that State.
The figure of 4 assembly seats does not appear in the State Party criteria, so the statement on 4 constituencies is incorrect; the 6% vote share together with 2 assembly seats forms the standard qualifying pair.
Hence, (i) and (ii) are correct.
