The council has 75 members, who are elected by an electoral college consisting of members of the Legislative Assembly, members of the Legislative Council, and local self-government representatives. The term of office of a member of the Legislative Council is six years.<\/p>\n<p>The number of members in the Legislative Council cannot exceed one-fourth of the total number of members in the Legislative Assembly. This is because the Legislative Council is a permanent body, while the Legislative Assembly is a temporary body that is dissolved after every five years. The Legislative Council is meant to provide a check on the power of the Legislative Assembly and to represent the interests of the minority groups in the state.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because they are not in accordance with the provisions of the Karnataka Legislative Council Act, 1952.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;1\/4th of the Assembly&#8221;
