List of current Indian Chief ministers - Wikipedia List of current Indian Chief ministers Indian states according to party of their chief minister Bharatiya Janata Party Indian National Congress Other parties Governor 's rule In the Republic of India, a chief minister is the head of government of each of twenty - nine states and two union territories ( Delhi and Puducherry ). According to the Constitution of India, at the state - level, the governor is de jure head, but de facto executive authority rests with the chief minister. Following elections to the state legislative assembly, the governor usually invites the party ( or coalition ) with a majority of seats to form the government. The governor appoints the chief minister, whose council of ministers are collectively responsible to the assembly. Given he has the assembly 's confidence, the chief minister 's term is usually for a maximum of five years ; there are no limits to the number of terms he / she can serve. Since June 2018, the office of Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir has been vacant ; Governor 's rule is in force there. Of the thirty incumbents, two are women -- Mamata Banerjee in West Bengal and Vasundhara Raje in Rajasthan. Serving since December 1994 ( for 23 years, 318 days ), Sikkim 's Pawan Kumar Chamling has the longest incumbency. Amarinder Singh ( b. 1942 ) of Punjab is the oldest chief minister while Arunachal Pradesh 's Pema Khandu ( b. 1979 ) is the youngest. Fifteen incumbents belong to the Bharatiya Janata Party and three to the Indian National Congress ; no other party has more than one chief minister in office.
