Elections to the '''[[Mizoram Legislative Assembly]]''' were held in February 1987 to elect members of the 40 constituencies in [[Mizoram]], India. Although designated as [[Independent (politician)|Independent]]s, the [[Mizo National Front]] won the majority of seats. Its leader, [[Laldenga]] was appointed as the [[Chief Minister of Mizoram]].

One of the conditions of the [[Mizoram Peace Accord]] was the conversion of Mizoram from a Union Territory to a state. This was achieved through the State of Mizoram Act, 1986 by which, the seats in the Legislative Assembly were increased from thirty to forty.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.indiacode.nic.in/bitstream/123456789/1869/1/198634.pdf |title=The State of Mizoram Act, 1986 |date=14 August 1986 |access-date=15 July 2021}}</ref>
