Answer 1

Hint:
Political parties are groups of individuals who have a similar ideology and get themselves elected to form their government and fulfill their common agenda. Our country India has a multi-party system and there are several recognized parties.

Complete answer:
Political parties are important institutions which are required for the smooth functioning of the government. We know that it is very difficult for an individual to manage the entire government of the country therefore it is required to have a group of people who manage things at different levels so that everything can function peacefully and properly. Usually, the main leader of the political party is the one who stands in elections and represents his party as one unit. India has adopted a multi-party system due to its vast regional and cultural diversity. There are several parties in India at both the state level and the central level. Among the national parties' most famous ones are The Bharatiya Janata Party, the Indian National Congress, Communist Party of India, and Nationalist Congress Party. Some of the significant state parties in India are Aam Aadmi party, All India United Democratic front, Biju Janata Dal, Kerala Congress, Mizo National Front, Naga People’s Front, People’s party of Arunachal, etc. In recent times we have been hearing about a lot of scams and scandals by several parties that involve top leaders and politicians. This is the reason why these parties do not have the complete trust of people.

So the correct option is option (1) B, A and C.

Note:
Political parties are essential to run the government as they are the ones who take all the decisions and implement these decisions to ensure the smooth functioning of the nation.
