1998 Gujarat Legislative Assembly election

The 10th Gujarat Legislative Assembly election was held on 21 February 1998 to elect all 182 members of the Gujarat Legislative Assembly. All 182 members of the Gujarat Legislative Assembly were elected with the leader of the largest party or coalition expected to become the next Chief Minister. The Bharatiya Janata Party took the majority after winning four seats less than last elections, Congress, on the other hand, was defeated with huge margin despite increasing its seats by almost 18%. Keshubhai Patel became the Chief Minister of Gujarat for the second time. This marked the last time Congress held power in the state in some form as of 2026.
