What Rajya Sabha polls tell us about Indian politics
Hindustan TimesTake the political story first and four features are apparent. And once again — like Ahmed Patel had shown in the Rajya Sabha elections in Gujarat in 2017 — it was the Congress’s old guard that delivered. The Rajya Sabha — because of the indirectly elected nature of the chamber — was meant to insulate the lawmaking process from immediate party-political imperatives and act as a Council of Elders. The Rajya Sabha polls are not immune to immediate political imperatives — but, in fact, are often driven by them. With 57 members either newly elected or returning to the House, the Rajya Sabha may wish to reflect on how to make the institution more effective in meeting the original constitutional vision.
