Out of these 250, 238 members are elected from the states or union territories, while the remaining 12 MPs can be eminent persons of the country, who are nominated by the President. However, at present this figure in the House is 245 MPs. The tenure of a Rajya Sabha MP is also 6 years.
These formulas are used in Rajya Sabha elections
Rajya Sabha MP is elected according to a formula. In this, the number of votes required by an MP is decided in advance.
Actually, in this, the total number of MLAs in an assembly is multiplied by 100 and it is divided by adding +1 to the total Rajya Sabha seats of the state.
After adding one to the resulting number, that is the number of votes to win a Rajya Sabha seat in a state.
This is the formula: Total number of MLAs in the Assembly x 100/(Rajya Sabha seats+1)= +1
this is the process
Rajya Sabha election is not a secret ballot nor is EVM used in it. Here a number from one to four is written next to the name of each candidate. MLAs have to mark it based on preference.
