HEY MATE...............
The Council of States (Rajya Sabha) is the Upper House of our Parliament. It consists of not more than 250 members, out of which, 238 members represent the States and Union territories and 12 members are nominated by the President from amongst the persons having special knowledge and practical experience in respect of such matters as literature, science, art and social service. At present, the actual strength of Rajya Sabha is 245.
Firstly Article 249 of the constitution provides that Rajya Sabha by a resolution passed by 2/3 of its members present and voting, may authorize the Parliament to pass laws on a matter in the state list, in the national interest.
Secondly, Article 312 of the constitution empower the Rajya Sabha to pass resolutions by 2/3 of its members present and voting, creating All India Services. It should be noted however, both under Art. 249 and Art 312, the special power of the Rajya Sabha enlarges the authority (kale Central Government at the expense of the powers of the states.
Thirdly, though in matter of constitutional amendment, the powers of the two Houses are equal, the Rajya Sabha has the power to check a dominant Lower House, if the ruling party does not enjoy the necessary 2/3 majority in the Rajya Sabha. Precisely such a situation arose during the Janata Rule. The Government could not have its way in the case of both the 43rd and 45th amendments for lack of necessary 2/3 majority in the Rajya Sabha.
On the whole, the situation is that the Rajya Sabha is less powerful than the Lok Sabha. This is perhaps as it should be. For the Lok Sabha is the popularly elected chamber and as such should have a greater say than the indirectly elected Rajya Sabha. The makers of the Indian Constitution put greater trust in the popularly elected chamber.
