Now 6 out of 28 states have bicameral legislatures. name Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Karnataka, Maharashtra, Telangana, and Uttar Pradesh, being bicameral with the remaining states having a unicameral one. Parliament can pass law for the abolition of an existing Legislative Council and can create where needed supported by a resolution of the Legislative Assembly of the state concerned.
A state legislature that has two houses -
The State Legislative assembly- The Vidhan Sabha - Unicameral-(Vidhan Sabha) - is a unicameral legislature-lower house and corresponds to the Lok Sabha while the Vidhan Parishad.
The provincial legislative councils was increased by the strength of elected members to be greater than that of nominated and official members in council being the power belonging to either the Centre or the Provinces.
Provincial Autonomy
The Government of India Act of 1935 abolished dyarchy and ensured provincial autonomy. Bicameral legislature was created in the Madras province. The Legislature consisted of the Governor and two Legislative bodies - a Legislative Assembly and a Legislative Council.
In independent India (1947 ) the Indian Constitution was adopted in 1950, the Legislative Council continued to be the upper chamber of the legislature of the Madras State
The Council could not pass legislation on its own - it had to approve or disapprove the laws passed by the Assembly. In case of conflict between the Council and the Assembly, the will of the later would prevail. When Madras state was renamed as Tamil Nadu in 1968, the name of the council also changed to "Tamil Nadu Legislative Council".

2. (Abolition) Bill, 1986 The Tamil Nadu Legislative Council was passed by both houses of the Parliament

My views
Cost and time Analysis.
Execution time.
Politician are believed, popular and elected. They are peoples interest, populous interest and should be believed interest . Election is executed by different reservation methods and should screen believed interest there. The execution is now a days very much rational and judgmental with one proven procedures. Aligning people interest with elected Politician and by making rational decision makes to execute without delay in one perfect channel of all issues rather putting too many constraints inside.
