General elections were held in Mauritius on 26 and 27 August 1953. The result was a victory for the Labour Party, which won 13 of the 19 elected seats on the Legislative Council. The twelve nominated members were appointed on 11 September. As had happened following the 1948 elections, the Governor-General Hilary Blood appointed twelve conservatives, largely to ensure the dominance of English and French speakers.

  • L'élection générale mauricienne de 1953 est une élection se déroulant en août 1953. Elle constitue le second scrutin législatif de ce type après celui de 1948. Comme le précédent, ce scrutin est organisé sous l'égide du pouvoir colonial britannique. Dix-neuf sièges sont élus, alors que douze sont désignés par le gouverneur général . Le scrutin a lieu les 26 et 27 août 1953 tandis que les nominations par le gouverneur général sont annoncées le 11 septembre 1953. Le parti travailliste mauricien remporte 13 des 19 sièges mis en jeu, tandis qu'Hillary Blood nomme 12 conservateurs assurant ainsi la prédominance linguistique de l'anglais et du français au sein de l'assemblée législative : en cela, l'élection de 1953 ressemble à celle de 1948.
