The Commission has said that elections will be held on the seats of Maharashtra, Odisha, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Chhattisgarh, West Bengal, Assam, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh and Bihar. These seats are expiring on different dates in the month of April. It is noteworthy that the tenure of Rajya Sabha is 6 years. But elections are held every two years for one-third of the seats. It is for this reason that Rajya Sabha is called a permanent house. This is said because unlike the Lok Sabha, the Rajya Sabha is never dissolved.
