New Delhi: This year 10 Rajya Sabha seats are getting vacant from Uttar Pradesh alone. There is a BJP government in the state, so most of the seats will go to the BJP's account. The Samajwadi Party will be the biggest loser here. The results of the recent assembly elections will directly affect the Rajya Sabha elections. The arithmetic of the state assemblies is going opposite BJP this time.
It is clear from the data that the BJP will not be able to increase the number of its members, due to which it will stay away from a majority in Rajya Sabha. While the Congress and its allies will increase in member numbers. It is noteworthy that in 2018 and 2019, BJP has suffered defeat in some states, which will directly affect the biennial election results of Rajya Sabha.

On the other hand, the position of Congress and its allies will improve in the 245-member Rajya Sabha. At present, BJP has 83 members in Rajya Sabha and 46 members of Congress. By equation, the BJP's strength in the Rajya Sabha will remain around 83 and its hope of majority in the house will not be fulfilled at the moment. This year the term of many veterans from Rajya Sabha is ending, due to which many seats will be left vacant.
