Solution
Answer: Option B
Solution:
Assam elects 7 Rajya Sabha seats since 1956 (one more than 1952 - 1956). Members are indirectly elected by state legislators (elected politicians) of Assam. The number of the seven seats allocated to each party is proportional to the legislator's number at the time of nomination.
