2003 Mizoram Legislative Assembly election
The 2003 Mizoram Legislative Assembly election was held on November 20, 2003, to elect members to the 40-seat assembly of the Indian state of Mizoram. This election marked the second electoral battle since the previous assembly polls in 1998, with significant political ramifications for the region. The ruling party, the Indian National Congress (INC), sought to consolidate its power against a backdrop of changing political dynamics and emerging regional parties. The election witnessed a voter turnout of approximately 75%, reflecting substantial public engagement. Following the election, the INC retained a majority, allowing it to form the government under the leadership of Chief Minister Zoramthanga. The outcomes of this election significantly influenced Mizoram's political landscape in subsequent years.
