How do MLAs become chief minister or ministers?

Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) can become chief ministers or ministers through a political process, typically after elections. In a parliamentary system, the political party or coalition that secures a majority of seats in the assembly usually nominates one of its MLAs as the chief minister. This nominee is then appointed by the governor of the state. Other MLAs from the ruling party or coalition may be appointed as ministers by the chief minister, forming the cabinet.
