BJP Rajya Sabha Tally пресича 100 за първи път от 2022 г.
Ню Делхи:
В подтик за ръководещия BJP партията за първи път мина през 100 -те марки в Раджа Сабха от април 2022 година, като трима номинирани членове се причислиха към партията.
Top lawyer, Ujjwal Nikam, former foreign secretary Harsh Vardhan Shringla and social worker C Sadanandan Master, who took oath as Rajya Sabha MPs last month, joined the BJP this week, taking the party's tally to 102.
The Rajya Sabha can have a maximum strength of 250 members - 238 elected and 12 nominated by the President - and currently has 245 MPs, including 12 nominated members.
After the results for the polls for 13 Rajya Sabha seats, held on March 31, 2022, were declared the following month, the BJP had become only the second party in India's history to have over 100 MPs in the Upper House of Parliament - the Congress had enjoyed the distinction between 1988 and 1990. The BJP's tally had, at the time, gone up from 97 to 101.
