Understand why does Mamata Banerjee want to revive Vidhan Parishad after 52 years

West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee will submit a proposal to form a State Legislative Council in assembly, as per reports. The move is now being viewed as a strategy devised by Mamata Banerjee, who lost to her rival candidate Suvendu Adhikari, to bypass the election process. By far, only 6 states in India have a Legislative Council, namely, Bihar, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, and Karnataka.
