In short

In the recent Legislative Council elections, the BJP won 13 seats across states including Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. The Samajwadi Party won 5 seats and the NCP won 2.

These elections are different from Assembly polls because people do not vote directly for all members. The report does not say how the result will change policy or control in each council.
