•Multiple sets are being prepared per candidate, requiring signatures from 10 proposers each.
•Trinamool aims to secure four Rajya Sabha seats, needing support from 196 MLAs; they currently have 219 direct MLAs plus 6 turncoat MLAs.
•Rajya Sabha elections for 37 seats across 10 states, including five from West Bengal, will be held on March 16.
