  1. What is the duration of membership of State Legislative Councils?
    1. 3 years
    2. 5 years
    3. 6 years
    4. 9 years
Correct Option: C

In contrast with a state's Vidhan Sabha (Legislative Assembly), the Legislative Council is a permanent body and cannot be dissolved.; each Member of the Legislative Council (MLC) serves for a six-year term, with terms staggered so that the terms of one-third of a Council's members expire every two years. This arrangement parallels that for the Rajya Sabha, the upper house of the Parliament of India.
