A composite floor test is done in the Legislative Assembly when
There is more than one person staking claim to form the government and the majority is not clear
A chief minister appointed by the governor is asked to prove his majority
The house needs a Presiding Officer when the previous one has resigned or unavailable due to unforeseen reasons
A state wide emergency is proclaimed by the President of India
What is floor test?
A chief minister appointed by the governor can be asked to prove his majority in case of doubt. In the 2016 elections, AIADMK won 134 out of 234 seats. With absolute majority, there were no questions asked and AIADMK leader J Jayalalithaa became the chief minister and formed the government. In situations where the majority can be questioned (for instance, when there is a coalition government), the governor may ask the chief minister to prove his/ majority in the House. In that case, the chief minister has to move a vote of confidence and win a majority among those present and voting.
What is composite floor test?
If there is more than one person staking claim to form the government and the majority is not clear the governor may call for a special session to see who has the majority. Some legislators may be absent or choose not to vote. The majority is then counted based on those present and voting. This can be done through a voice vote, where the legislators respond orally, or through a division vote
