\nRajya Sabha has exclusive jurisdiction in authorizing Parliament to legislate on a subject in the State List.
\n<\/section>\n
\n– Article 249 of the Constitution grants the Rajya Sabha the power to pass a resolution, by a majority of not less than two-thirds of the members present and voting, declaring that it is necessary or expedient in the national interest that Parliament should make laws with respect to any matter enumerated in the State List specified in the resolution.
\n– Upon passing such a resolution, Parliament gains the power to make laws on that specific State List subject for a period not exceeding one year, which can be extended.
\n– This power is unique to the Rajya Sabha as the representative body of the states, allowing it to enable central legislation on state matters when deemed necessary in the national interest.
\n<\/section>\n
\nOther exclusive powers of the Rajya Sabha include initiating a resolution for the creation of new All India Services (Article 312) and approving a Proclamation of National Emergency when the Lok Sabha stands dissolved (Article 352). Creation of new states, declaration of war, and financial emergency involve the Parliament as a whole, the executive, or the President, not the exclusive jurisdiction of the Rajya Sabha.
