Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The Election Commission has established a list of requirements for a political party to be classified as a regional party. The Election Commission in India maintains a registration of all political parties. A party is recognised as a state party if it wins at least two seats and receives at least six percent of the votes in a state's legislative assembly election. Every state has a regional party that promotes the interests of its residents. Numerous regional parties have won seats in the Indian Parliament as well. In their respective states, parties like the Sikkim Democratic Front and Biju Janata Dal are heavily involved.
Thus, certain criterias have been laid out by the Election Commission to label a political party as a regional party.
