Explanation

Article 63 of the Constitution designates the Vice President of India as the ex-officio Chairman of the Rajya Sabha. The Vice President presides over Rajya Sabha proceedings but does not vote in the first instance (only in case of a tie). The Speaker presides over Lok Sabha, not Rajya Sabha.
