2008 Rajya Sabha elections
The 2008 Rajya Sabha elections in India were held in multiple phases between March and August 2008 to elect members to the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of Parliament. These elections were significant as they involved the retirement of several incumbent members, prompting various political parties to nominate candidates to fill the vacant seats. A total of 62 members were elected across different states and union territories, as the elections demonstrated the political dynamics and alliances among various parties, including the Indian National Congress, Bharatiya Janata Party, and regional parties. The elections also reflected broader trends in Indian politics, including coalition-building and the influence of regional parties in shaping national policies.
