1991 Kerala Legislative Assembly election

The 1991 Kerala Legislative Assembly election was held on 20 April 1991, marking a significant political event in the southern Indian state of Kerala. This election was conducted to elect members of the 11th Legislative Assembly, following the dissolution of the assembly in 1990. The primary contest was between the Left Democratic Front (LDF), led by the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)), and the United Democratic Front (UDF), led by the Indian National Congress (INC). The election was notable for its high voter turnout and intense campaigning, resulting in a decisive victory for the LDF, which secured 99 out of 140 seats, enabling E. K. Nayanar to assume the office of Chief Minister for the second time. The election underscored the political resilience of the Left in Kerala and had lasting implications for the state's governance and electoral dynamics.
