PoliticsPolitical Battle for UP Rajya Sabha's 10th Seat Intensifies
The 2026 Rajya Sabha election in Uttar Pradesh has intensified political competition for the 10th seat. With only one seat available and 395 maximum votes due to seven vacant assembly seats, about 37 first preference votes are needed to win. Both Samajwadi Party (SP) and BJP are closely watching each other's legislators amid cross-voting strategies. SP seeks nine additional votes for a third seat, claiming contacts with allied party MLAs and some BJP members, though BJP has not confirmed these claims.
