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.

Probably, yes. Vidhan Parishad (Upper House - Legislative Council) in each state together with the Vidhan Sabha (Lower House - Legislative Assembly). At present only 6 of India's 28 states ( U.P., Bihar, J&K, Maharastra, Karnataka and A.P.) have Vidhan Parishad, an equivalent to the Rajya Sabha at the parliament. Other states got those abolished for various reasons in the past. Mamta Banerjee is trying to re-establishing the Vidhan Parishad in West Bengal. This Upper House in the state like the Rajya Sabha consists of journalists, lawyers, judges and such eminent people who do not want to contest election unlike other politicians. Such appointed members as wanted by civil society perform alike politicians because politics is all about choosing the best option out of the available options according to the Late P.V. Narasimha Rao. Please also see: What is Anna Hazare civil society?
