उत्तर
Allotment of Symbols: The National and State level parties can have a reserved symbol for all the candidates nominated by them. The independent candidates can select any symbol out of a list of ‘Free Symbols’.
The purpose behind allotting symbols is that illiterate masses can not read the names of the candidates of their parties. It is easy for them to identify the symbols for electing candidates of their choice. Secondly ‘reserved symbols’ become so popular that the parties do not have to do canvassing for their candidates.
