1990 Himachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly election

The 1990 Himachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly election was held on November 24, 1990, to elect members of the 11th Legislative Assembly of Himachal Pradesh, India. This election was significant as it followed a period of political instability and was marked by intense campaigning among major political parties, including the Indian National Congress (INC) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The INC, led by Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh, aimed to retain power, while the BJP sought to expand its influence in the region. Voter turnout was reported at approximately 70%, reflecting robust civic engagement. The election outcome resulted in a decisive victory for the INC, consolidating Singh's leadership and allowing his government to implement various developmental initiatives across the state.
