Q. Consider the following statements regarding “Rajya Sabha”:
1.It is a permanent body and is not subject to dissolution.
2.One-third of its members retire at the end of every third year.
Which of the statements given above is/are correct?
Answer: A
Notes:
Explanation: Like the Rajya Sabha, the legislative council is a continuing chamber, that is, it is a permanent body and is not subject to dissolution.
But one-third of its members retire on the expiration of every second year. So, a member continues as such for six years.
