Parliament of India is bicameral. The lower house is designated as
House of People or 'Lok-Sabha' and The Upper house as 'Council of
States' or 'Rajya-Sabha'. The two houses along with the President
constitute Parliament and all these three organs are essential to the
process of Legislation by the Parliament. The two houses of parliament
in India differ from each other in many respects. They are constituted
on entirely different principles.
Difference Between Lok-Sabha and Rjya-Sabha :
1) Nature :
Lok-Sabha is not a continuous body. It is dissolve after every 5 years or its period may be extended in emergency or can be reduced after dissolution for any reason. Whereas Rajya-Sabha is a continuous body and there is a rotation system. It is not dissolved, but after every two years 1/3rd members are retired and 1/3rd are introduced.
2) Capacity
Maximum capacity of Lok-Sabha is 550 whereas maximum capacity of the Rajya Sabha is 250.
3) Election :
The election of the Lok-Sabha is direct whereas election of Rajya-Sabha is indirect and the President of India may nominate 12 members for Rajya-Sabha (See....Legislative Powers of the President).
4) Term
Term of Lok-Sabha is 5 years but it can be dissolved earlier or can be extended more than 5 years, whereas term of the Rajya-Sabha 6 years.
5) Age :

6) Business

In short
