Who is called an independent candidate in an election?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: One who does not contest on a party ticket

Correct answer: D — an independent candidate contests an election without being nominated on the ticket of a political party. Such a candidate may still campaign, explain policies, and seek votes, but is not contesting as the official candidate of a party. A is wrong because a person who does not vote is simply a non-voter, not necessarily an independent candidate. B is wrong because counting votes is an election duty, not the meaning of independent candidature. C is wrong because the Election Commission is an institution that conducts and supervises elections; it is not a candidate. The key distinction is party affiliation in the contest. Memory cue: independent means contesting independently, without a party ticket.
