3rd Telangana Assembly

The 3rd Telangana Assembly is the legislative assembly of the Indian state of Telangana for the term that began after the 2023 Telangana Legislative Assembly election. Polling was held on 30 November 2023, and the election results were announced on 3 December 2023. The electoral process concluded on 5 December 2023, after which the new assembly was constituted. It succeeded the 2nd Telangana Legislative Assembly. The assembly consists of 119 elected Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs). A political party or coalition requires 60 seats to command the majority needed to form the state government. In the 2023 election, the Indian National Congress won 64 seats, crossing the majority threshold and displacing the incumbent governing party. The assembly therefore marked a change in the political administration of Telangana while continuing the state's established unicameral legislative framework. As Telangana's principal elected law-making institution, the assembly's functions include debating and passing state legislation, approving public expenditure, scrutinising the executive, representing territorial constituencies, and addressing matters within the constitutional responsibilities of the state government. Its membership is determined through elections to the state's 119 assembly constituencies. The designation "3rd Telangana Assembly" identifies the legislative term rather than a commercial brand or consumer-facing organization.

The 3rd Telangana Assembly was created through the 2023 election to the Telangana Legislative Assembly. Telangana is represented by a unicameral state legislature with 119 elected constituencies. The assembly's constitutional role is to make laws on matters assigned to the state, approve taxation and expenditure within the state framework, debate public policy, and hold the executive government accountable. The election was conducted on 30 November 2023. Results were declared on 3 December, and the election process was completed on 5 December. The election changed the governing alignment in the state: the Indian National Congress secured 64 seats, above the 60 seats required for a majority in a 119-member chamber. The result allowed Congress to form the state government and established the political context for the third legislative assembly. The assembly followed the 2nd Telangana Legislative Assembly. Its members represent constituencies across Telangana and collectively constitute the state's principal elected deliberative body. The assembly's designation is chronological, distinguishing this legislative term from earlier Telangana assemblies; it is not the name of a commercial enterprise, product, or voluntary organization. Available reference material identifies the election, the chamber's size, and the majority outcome, but does not provide a complete account of officeholders, committee structures, legislative measures, or later developments.
