The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has moved closer to securing a majority in the Rajya Sabha after strengthening its position with recent gains in West Bengal. According to the latest numbers, the party is now just 6 seats short of the 123-member majority mark in the 245-seat Upper House. The improved tally is expected to make it easier for the BJP-led NDA to push key legislation, though support from allies and nominated members will still remain important. The development marks another significant milestone in the party's parliamentary expansion ahead of future elections. (PC: News18)
