Everything about Chief Minister totally explained
A
Chief Minister is the elected
head of government of a sub-national (for example constituent federal) state, notably a state (and sometimes a
union territory) of
India, a territory of
Australia or a
British overseas territory that has attained self-government. It is also used as the English version of the title given to the heads of governments of the
Malay states without a monarchy.
The title is also used in the
Crown dependencies of the
Isle of Man (since 1986), in
Guernsey (since 2004), and in
Jersey (since 2005).
In Malaysia, it's used to refer to the heads of government, called in their
Malay language term
Ketua Menteri (literally Chief Minister), of the
Malaysian states without a sultan, for example,
Malacca,
Penang,
Sabah and
Sarawak, while the Malay language term
Menteri Besar (literally Great Minister) is used in other states with a monarch.
By analogy the term is often applied to various other high ministerial offices, for example in a
princely state before or during the
British raj.
