However, two days after the election, caretaker Menteri Besar Saarani Mohammad was reappointed to the position and the state government was formed on 21 November 2022 after the agreement of BN and PH to form the coalition government, it exceeded the simple majority support of 30 members of the assembly (MLAs) required to form the state government.

They achieved the support of 33 MLAs, 24 from PH and 9 from BN.

A day after this, the other members of the state government, namely the members of the Perak State Executive Council, (EXCO) were also appointed.
