Expert Answer
The Rajya Sabha is the Upper House of the Parliament.
- In a Federal system, the Rajya Sabha represents the interests of the states.
- Rajya Sabha acts as a check on the majoritarian policies of the Lok Sabha. Lok Sabha may pass a Bill hastily. In such a scenario, the Rajya Sabha discusses a bill clause by clause and may send it back to the Lok Sabha for reconsideration.
- Though the Rajya Sabha has no control over some matters like the money bill, it does have equal powers with the Lok Sabha in important matters like the impeachment of the President and the judges of the Supreme Court, constitutional amendements etc.
- In case of disagreements between the two houses, a joint sitting of the two houses is convened where matters are decided by majority votes.
