The Rajya Sabha is a permanent body in which one-third members retire every 2 years and members are elected in their place.(3) Lok Sabha is the House to which the Council of Ministers is responsible under the Constitution. Money Bills can only be introduced in Lok Sabha. Also it is Lok Sabha which grants the money for running the administration of the country.(4) Rajya Sabha has special powers to declare that it is necessary and expedient in the national interest that Parliament may make laws with respect to a matter in the State List or to create by law one or more all-India services common to the Union and the States.
The current elected members of the Assemblies of States and Union territories elect the members of Rajya Sabha. They do this while following the system that is set up to insure proportional representation.
