The 2026 Rajya Sabha elections across Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, and West Bengal culminated in a sweeping victory for the Bharatiya Janata Party, which captured 10 out of the 12 contested parliamentary seats. The electoral contest saw the Samajwadi Party securing two seats exclusively from Uttar Pradesh, whereas the Congress party failed to win even a single seat across all three states.
