Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Some parties receive separate party symbols from the Election Commission. 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. These parties are assigned a distinct symbol, which the party's official candidates can only use. The Election Commission 'recognises' parties granted this privilege and other unique benefits. These parties are referred to as "recognised political parties." The Election Commission has specified the proportion of votes and seats that a party must receive to be recognised.
