Solution

The correct option is A 6
If a state legislature has only one Chamber, which is the Legislative Assembly, then it’s called a ‘unicameral legislature’. Most states follow this system. Meanwhile, if a state legislature has both the Assembly and the Council, it is called a bicameral legislature. The 6 states of India are those who have bicameral legislature they are (Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Orissa, Telangana, Bihar, and Uttar Pradesh).
