1995 Indian Rajya Sabha elections

The 1995 Indian Rajya Sabha elections were held to fill the biennial vacancies in the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of India's Parliament. These elections took place in the context of a politically tumultuous era marked by economic liberalization and social changes following the end of the Cold War. Conducted during May and June 1995, the polls were crucial for various political parties as they sought to strengthen their representation in the Rajya Sabha, influencing legislative agendas at the national level. The elections were marked by strategic alignments and coalitions, reflecting regional dynamics and the power struggles within the Indian political landscape. Ultimately, the results reshaped the composition of the house, impacting legislative policymaking for subsequent years.
