Elections to the Rajasthan Legislative Assembly were held in February 1962, to elect members of the 176 constituencies in Rajasthan, India. The Indian National Congress won the most seats as well as the popular vote, and its leader, Mohan Lal Sukhadia was reappointed as the Chief Minister of Rajasthan for his third term.[1]
After the passing of The Delimitation of Parliamentary and Assembly Constituencies Order, 1961, double member constituencies were eliminated and Rajasthan's Legislative Assembly was assigned 176 single-member constituencies.[2]
