India

  • The Election Commission will hold Rajya Sabha elections for 12 seats across three states on 16 October.
  • Uttar Pradesh fills ten of them, with one each in Uttarakhand and West Bengal.
  • Polling for 28 Legislative Council seats in four states follows a week later, on 23 October.
  • State MLAs elect Rajya Sabha members, so the result largely follows the parties' strength in each assembly.
