Solution

The correct option is B General election
If the Lok Sabha or the Vidhan Sabha elections are held simultaneously in all the constituencies, then it is called General Elections. Earlier up to 1957 simultaneous elections were held for both the Lok Sabha and the State Assemblies. However, on account of early dismissal and mid-term elections, the two gradually separated.
