The word political Party was inserted by 52nd Constitutional Amendement in 1985. Statement 2 is correct. AAP is recognised as State Party and not National Party.AAP is recognised as State Party in Delhi(2013)&recently in 2014 elections in Punjab. To become National Party a Party must be State Party in more than 4 States. A political party becomes eligible to be recognised as a national party if it fulfils any of the three following conditions: * The party has won 2 per cent of seats in the Lok Sabha (11 seats) from at least three different states in the latest general election. * In an election to the Lok Sabha or Legislative Assembly, the party has polled 6 per cent of the total valid votes in at least four states, in addition to winning four Lok Sabha seats. * A party has got recognition as a state party in at least four states. Once a political party is recognised as a national party, the question of whether it continues to be recognised as such after subsequent Lok Sabha polls depends on whether it fulfils any of the three conditions.
