In India, a full-term member of the Rajya Sabha is elected for 6 years. However, one-third of the members retire every two years, ensuring a continuous and staggered process of elections.

Key points:
● The Rajya Sabha is the upper house of the Indian Parliament.
● Members are elected by the legislative assemblies of the states and union territories.
● It is a permanent body and cannot be dissolved, unlike the Lok Sabha.
● Members represent their states or union territories in the Parliament.
● The Vice President of India serves as the ex-officio Chairperson of the Rajya Sabha.
● Regular retirement ensures continuity and balance in the legislative process.
