State wise Seats MLA, MLC, MP(LS) and MP(RS)

The Rajya Sabha has a maximum seating capacity of 250; however, its current sanctioned strength stands at 245 members. Among these, 233 are elected representatives from various states and union territories, while 12 are nominated by the President of India. A comprehensive breakdown of the 245 members is as follows: 225 members are representatives from the states, 8 members represent the union territories (specifically Delhi, Puducherry, and Jammu and Kashmir), and 12 members are nominated by the President for their significant contributions to art, literature, science, and social service.

The Lok Sabha currently comprises a total of 543 elected seats. Although the Constitution of India allows for a maximum of 550 seats (with up to 530 from states and a maximum of 20 from Union Territories), the present allocated strength stands at precisely 543, a result of the 104th Constitutional Amendment Act, which eliminated the nomination of two Anglo-Indian members.
