The Vidhan Sabha (Legislative Assembly) is more powerful than the Vidhan Parishad (Legislative Council) primarily because it is the lower house of the state legislature and has the authority to initiate and pass legislation, including money bills. Additionally, the Vidhan Sabha has greater representation, with members directly elected by the public, which grants it a stronger democratic mandate. In contrast, the Vidhan Parishad's role is mainly advisory and it cannot override decisions made by the Vidhan Sabha, making the latter the dominant legislative body.
The Vidhan Parishad, or Legislative Council, is created in India through a constitutional provision under Article 169 of the Constitution. The Parliament can establish a Vidhan Parishad for a state if the state legislature passes a resolution in favor of its creation. The composition and powers of the council are determined by the state law, which outlines the number of members, their election process, and the duration of their terms. Additionally, the council typically consists of elected members, nominated members, and representatives from various sectors, such as local authorities.
Uttar Pradesh has a bicameral legislature, consisting of two houses: the Vidhan Sabha (Legislative Assembly) and the Vidhan Parishad (Legislative Council). The Vidhan Sabha is the lower house, with members elected directly by the public, while the Vidhan Parishad is the upper house, composed of members elected by local authority members, graduates, teachers, and appointed by the governor. This structure allows for a diverse representation of the state's population and interests in the legislative process.
