Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Typically, on the same day and at the same time, all the votes cast in a general election are counted. All EVMs are sealed and transported to a secure location after the voting is completed. All of the EVMs from a constituency are opened a few days later on a set date, and the votes received by each candidate are counted. All of the candidates' agents are present to ensure that the counting is done correctly. This event is covered by radio, television, and newspapers. After the results are counted, they are all announced within a short period of time, making it obvious who will form the next government. A candidate is deemed elected if they receive the most votes from their constituency.
The correct statement would be in a general election, the counting of votes in all the constituencies takes place on the same day.
