2001 Indian Rajya Sabha elections
The 2001 Indian Rajya Sabha elections were held to fill 30 seats in the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of India's Parliament. These elections were conducted in the backdrop of significant political developments, including the aftermath of the 2000 Assembly elections in various states and the formation of new political alliances. The polls took place across multiple phases, with members elected by the elected members of State Legislative Assemblies and Union territory legislatures through a single transferable vote system. The elections reinforced the presence of major political parties in the Rajya Sabha, notably the Indian National Congress and the Bharatiya Janata Party, reflecting the shifting dynamics of Indian politics at the turn of the millennium. The results had implications for legislative strategy and governance at the national level.
