NEW DELHI: The Election Commission has deferred its decision to de-recognise the CPI, TMC and NCP as “national party” in view of their poor performance in May 2019 Lok Sabha polls following pleas from them, sources in the poll panel said on Wednesday.
The parties in their plea told the poll panel that as there would be a series of polls to various State Assemblies they would definitely improve their performance, the sources said.
“We have accepted their pleas and deferred the decision”, they said.
For getting “national party” status, a party should be a recognised “state party” in at least four states. (AGENCIES)
