State Assembly elections in India determine which party or coalition forms the state government. The party or alliance winning a majority of Assembly seats in a state gets to form the government and appoint the Chief Minister. Unlike Lok Sabha elections which are held simultaneously across India, each state follows its own election cycle, typically every five years.
