The other name of Rajya Sabha is the upper house and council of states.
It is known as the upper house because it has fewer members than the House of Representatives and has powers that the House does not, such as approving Cabinet secretaries and federal judges. The Rajya Sabha is also known as the House of State or the Council of States. The state legislative assemblies elect Rajya Sabha members. Its members are the state's central representatives. The Rajya Sabha defends the rights and interests of the states against the union. As a result, it is known as the Council of States.
