Points To Remember:
Members of Legislative Assembly (MLAs) are elected by the people. Thus we can say that MLAs represents people
Every state in India has a Legislative Assembly and each state is divided into different areas or constituencies. From each constituency, the people elect one representative who becomes MLA
A political party who’s MLAs has won more than half the number of constituencies in a state are called in majority, and all the members of other political party who does not belong to ruling party are called opposition. MLAs are together responsible for the work of government
After the elections, the MLAs of the ruling part elect their leader who becomes the chief minister. The chief ministers select other ministers
After the elections, the governor of the state appoints the chief minister and other ministers
The Legislative Assembly is the place where opinions are expressed related to the work of government and action to sort out any problem or difficulty is demanded.
