Which of the following statements is correct regarding the Rajya Sabha (Council of States)?

Question

Accepted Answer

Under the constitutional provisions of India, Rajya Sabha is a permanent body and cannot be dissolved (Article 83(1)). The President of India nominates 12 members to the Rajya Sabha who have distinguished achievements or specialized knowledge in the fields of literature, science, art, and social service. The nomination of Anglo-Indian members was previously applicable to the Lok Sabha (under Article 331), not the Rajya Sabha, and this provision has become ineffective since January 26, 2020.
