Parliamentary elections were held in Afghanistan in 1931. A new constitution, which came into effect on 31 October 1931,[1] provided for parliamentary elections to be held every three years.[2] The first of these were held in 1931.[2] Suffrage was granted to men aged over 20.[1] The first formal bi-cameral Afghan Parliament convened later that same year.[3]
