Jammu and Kashmir Assembly Election: What happened in 2014 and 2008?

The Assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir in 2014 were held in five phases from 25 November – 20 December 2014. Voters elected 87 members to the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly, which ends its six-year term on 19 January 2020. The results were declared on 23 December 2014.

The Assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir were held over seven days in November and December 2008.

After the election, the Jammu & Kashmir National Conference (NC) agreed on a coalition with Congress and their leader, Omar Abdullah became the state's youngest-ever Chief Minister at 38.
