Explanation:
A system of legislation consisting of two assemblies in this form of legislation, is known as the bicameral system. As many as seven Indian states have this bicameral legislative system, and they are mentioned above. A bicameral legislature is a rather uncommon phenomenon and the majority of the world has a unicameral system of legislation.
