Union Minister Ram Vilas Paswan, who has been elected to Rajya Sabha from Bihar, took oath as a member of the Upper House.
The Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) chief, a nine-term Lok Sabha member, was elected unopposed for his second term as a Rajya Sabha member in a by-poll necessitated by the resignation of his cabinet colleague Ravi Shankar Prasad.
BJP's Prasad won Lok Sabha election from Patna Sahib Constituency of Bihar in the recently-concluded national elections. Paswan has been assigned the portfolio of Consumer Affairs and Public Distribution for the second time in the PM Narendra Modi-led government.
Newly elected BJP MP Ashwini Baishnab also took as a Rajya Sabha member. He was elected unopposed from Odisha. Rajya Sabha Chairman M Venkaiah Naidu administered the oath to both the members.
