I should say this list in not ready for featured status. First, the list itself is small so a longer introduction is needed. More background: how they are elected, what do they do, what powers do they have, why 5 other union territories don't have the Chief Ministers, etc. etc. Second, you have lists of all historical CM for every state, why not to put in those links? Third, it's talk page is on
Chief Minister of India. Fourth, one reference is not enough. Fifth, who is going to maintain this list?

Thanks for your review:
I would prefer to go with a split in the article as Afonso Silva suggests below on the lines of
List of Governors of India and
Governors of India. The suggestions on CMs will be addressed on that page. (Will expand it later this week)
Extra column on former CMs added.
Fixed links.
May I ask why is one reference not enough? I can understand it for articles on history, geography etc., but this is just a list of widely available data. The source is from an Indian government portal, which would classify it as a primary source. I sincerely don't think additional sources would be of any use.
I don't see a problem in the maintainance of the list. It has been frequently updated, and anons have taken part: See the
article's history. Also the data is not volatile. An average of 30 updates per 5 years is not too high.

Comment - I think this lists just the names of the current Chief Ministers, further explanations, such as their powers and electoral system should be present on the Chief Minister article, this is just a list and it lists all the names, along with the respective state and party, so I think it is complete. If only one reference was used, and I don't see any reason for more, it's enough. But I agree when Renata says that the talk page should not be redirected and we could also have those historical links. About maintenance, the content is not so volatile. Anyway, if we find an agreement, I'll support it, for me it is good.

Pictures of present CMs are available
here but not of good quality, but as the parts of the list may be helpful. I am not sure about license policy of the website.
