Question

distinguish between vidhan sabha or vidhan parishad

Answer 1

this was the same question in my syllabus
your answer is:
The Vidhan Parishad or the Legislative Council is the upper house in the six states that have a bicameral legislature. In case of unicameral states, there is no Vidhan Parishad. This house is applicable in states such as: Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Jammu and Kashmir, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Uttar Pradesh. The size of the Vidhan Parishad cannot be more than one-third of the members of the Vidhan Sabha. However, it also cannot be less than 40 members, unless specified by an Act of Parliament. The Vidhan Parishad is also permanent, which means it cannot be dissolved during a State of Emergency. The members of the Vidhan Parishad are known as MLCs (Members of Legislative Council) and each member serves a six-year term. However, it is set up in a way that one-third of the Council’s members expire every two years. This is similar to the layount on the Rajya Sabha.
