The Rajya Sabha held its first sitting on 13 May 1952. The salary and other benefits for a member of Rajya Sabha are same as for a member of LokSabha. Rajya Sabha members are elected by state legislatures rather than directly through the electorate by single transferable vote method.

Hope this helps you. ..
