Who mainly elects members of Rajya Sabha?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Elected members of State Legislative Assemblies

Correct answer: A. Rajya Sabha is the Upper House of Parliament, and its members are mainly elected indirectly. The elected members of the Legislative Assemblies of the States vote to choose representatives for their State in Rajya Sabha. Ordinary citizens do not vote directly for Rajya Sabha candidates as they do in a Lok Sabha election. Judges and district magistrates have no general role in electing Rajya Sabha members. The word “indirectly” means that citizens first elect State Assembly members, and those elected representatives then participate in the Rajya Sabha election. Thus, option A correctly identifies the main electoral body. Memory cue: Lok Sabha is directly elected by the people; Rajya Sabha is mainly elected by elected State Assembly members.
