Rajya Sabha

The Rajya Sabha, or Council of States, is the upper house of the Parliament of India and functions as the institutional representation of India's federal units – the states and union territories. It is a key component of India's bicameral legislature at the national level, complementing the Lok Sabha. While the Lok Sabha embodies the will of the people through direct elections, the Rajya Sabha serves as the voice of the states in the law-making process, reinforcing the federal character of the country. As a permanent body that cannot be dissolved, the Rajya Sabha ensures continuity in governance and safeguards regional interests by offering a platform where state perspectives can be articulated on national legislation. Its creation reflects the constitutional vision of balancing the unity of the nation with the diversity of its constituent units.
