Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
All across the world, democracies that adopt a federal system have two types of political parties: parties that are present in only one of the national units and parties that are present in several or all of the federal units. This is also the case in India. There are various nationwide parties known as "national parties." These parties have branches in several states. However, in general, all these entities adhere to the same policies, programs, and strategies established at the national level. Every political party in the country is required to register with the Election Commission. While the Commission treats all parties equally, large and established parties are given preferential treatment.
The correct statement would be democracies that follow a federal system of government need not have only national parties.
