The BJP's strength in the Rajya Sabha decreased to 86 after four members—Sonal Mansingh, Mahesh Jethmalani, Rakesh Sinha, and Ram Shakal—completed their terms on July 13. Consequently, the NDA's tally stands at 101, falling short of the 113 majority mark in the 245-member House. The BJP expects to secure additional seats in upcoming elections in states like Bihar, Maharashtra, and Assam. Despite the vacancies, the party remains confident about winning new seats and maintaining its influence in the upper house.
