Scindia today took oath as a member of the Upper House from Madhya Pradesh. Singh, who has been at odds with Scindia after the latter's exit from Congress in March this year also took oath today.

In Madhya Pradesh, BJP candidates Scindia and Sumer Singh Solanki won the election along with Congress leader Digvijaya Singh.

Sixty-one members were recently elected to Rajya Sabha from 20 states.

Voting for vacant Rajya Sabha seats was held on June 19. The polls, which were to be held on March 26, were deferred in view of the COVID-19 outbreak.
