The People's Khural of the Republic of Buryatia (Russian: Народный хурал Республики Бурятия, romanized: Narodny khural Respubliki Buryatiya; Buryat: Буряад Уласай Арадай Хурал, romanized: Buryaad Ulasay Araday Khural, [burʲˈaːtulɐˈsæɑrɐˈdæxurˈɑl]) is the regional parliament of Buryatia, a federal subject of Russia. Its 66 deputies are popularly elected every five years. Half of the deputies are elected through a proportional system, and the other half are elected in single-member constituencies with majorities. Independent deputies are self-nominated.
Elections are called by the People's Khural at least three months before the expiration of terms of deputies. Deputies are chosen by the general populace voting for their party's representatives.
The first Chairman of the People's Khural was Mikhail Innokentyevich Semyonov, who is, as of current, the only person to hold the office for two terms in a row.
