The Parliament of Rajyaghar, officially called and commonly referred to as the Shahee Sansad, is the federal and supreme legislature of the Kingdom of Rajyaghar. A unicameral legislature, the Shahee Sansad is made up of a mixture of elected and appointed individuals who are known as Members of Parliament (MPs). As the head of all branches of the government, the Monarch has the exclusive power to summon, prorogue and dissolve the Shahee Sansad but by convention this is only done following the Monarch taking advice from the Prime Minister.

The Shahee Sansad, and wider rajyani government, is modelled off of the Northabbey model in which the executive government (the Central Union Government) finds its members from within the legislature (the Shahee Sansad). Whilst the Monarch is the one to appoint the Prime Minister, by convention, the political party or coalition that holds a majority of seats in the Shahee Sansad, will nominate its leader to be the Prime Minister and will choose from amongst itself members who will serve in the Central Union Government. Due to the government of the day being required to have the support of a majority in the Shahee Sansad, it is not unusual for their to be early elections if they lose this support.

Of the 450 Members of Parliament, 260 are directly elected by the Rajyani electorate voting in single-member districts in a first-past-the-post system. 78 MPs are appointed by the Monarch on the advice given by an independent advisory board and an additional 112 are appointed based on their positions as heads of the 112 registered Clans of Rajyaghar. Due to this makeup, Rajyaghar is often considered a southern democracy or flawed democracy.

The Parliament meets at the Sansad Bhavan in Government Hill, Kinadica.
