India’s Upper House will witness a major reshuffle on Friday with voting for 25 seats to be held in six states. Though 59 Rajya Sabha seats fall vacant in April, 33 candidates have already been elected unopposed.
Here’s a look at how Rajya Sabha members are elected.
The Rajya Sabha or the Upper House of Parliament is modeled after the House of Lords in the United Kingdom. The Rajya Sabha currently has 245 members, including 233 elected members and 12 nominated. As per the constitutional limit, the Upper House strength cannot exceed 250.
Nominated members of the Rajya Sabha are picked by the President of India. These MPs are luminaries from the world of economics, sports, literature, art, social service etc.
