The Tamil Nadu Legislature is the unicameral legislature of the Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The Legislature is composed of Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly and the Governor of Tamil Nadu
Until 1986, the Tamil Nadu Legislature was a bicameral legislature consisting of the
- the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly, the lower house,
- the Tamil Nadu Legislative Council, the upper house, and
- the Governor of Tamil Nadu
In 2010, the erstwhile Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK) Government took steps to revive the Tamil Nadu Legislative Council and convert the legislature back into a bicameral one, but the administration left power during this time and was unable to continue. The present All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) Government has expressed its intent not to revive the Tamil Nadu Legislative Council.
