The Second Farhaz Hazarika ministry is the 25th and current Council of Ministers of the State of Vishwamitra headed by Prime Minister of Vishwamitra Farhaz Hazarika. The ministry was formed on 22 November 2021 following the November 2021 general election which resulted in the National People's Congress winning majority of the seats.
Background
General elections were held in Vishwamitra on 14 November and 20 November 2021 in two phases, initially planned for three phases. The all-time dominant National People's Congress contested from 19 of the 20 constituencies of the House of the People and was able to win unopposed from 15 constituencies. Elections were held in Basistha Rural constituency of Basistha on 14 November, and to Dhirenpara constituency of Madhya Prant, and National List and Chandril constituencies of Kamrupa on 20 November 2021. The results were declared the next day on 21 November. Out of the four contested constituencies, the National People's Congress won two seats being the Basistha Rural and Chandril constituencies. While the newly formed Green Socialist Party won the rest two seats, being the Dhirenpara and National List constituencies. In Dhirenpara, the GSP candidate Su Yi-An defeated former Union Minister Abayat Ibtiyaz who earlier served as the Member of Parliament from Rashtra Niwas.
Following the Green Socialist Party winning from two seats of the Parliament, its leader David Brooke was recognized as the Leader of the Opposition. On 22 November 2021, Rashtradhyaksh Dhrubajyoti Roy approved the constitution of the 14th Parliament and later in the day, appointed Farhaz Hazarika as the Prime Minister for the second time.
