The West Java Regional House of Representatives (; ) is the unicameral legislature of the Indonesian province of West Java.
History The council was first founded in 1950, with Djaja Rahmat as its speaker. The council, which was called a "temporary provincial council" () initially had 60 members. Before 1950, a similar body was present which was headed by Oto Iskandar di Nata. After being renamed to its present name in 1955, the number of councillors went up from 60 to 75, down to 74, before becoming the present 100.
On 29 August 2025, the legislature's building was attacked by protesters and damaged, with windows broken and the building's exterior burned by molotov cocktails.
