2013 Chhattisgarh Legislative Assembly election

The 2013 Chhattisgarh Legislative Assembly election was held on November 11, 2013, to elect 90 members of the Chhattisgarh Legislative Assembly. This election was significant as it took place amid rising political tensions and security concerns due to Maoist insurgency in the region. The primary contest was between the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), led by incumbent Chief Minister Raman Singh, and the Indian National Congress (INC), which sought to regain power after a decade in opposition. The election was marked by a high voter turnout and was viewed as a critical test for both parties ahead of the 2014 general elections. The BJP emerged victorious, securing a substantial majority and continuing its governance in the state.
