The '''First K. Karunakaran Ministry''' (25 March 1977 – 25 April 1977) was a short-lived ministry of the [[Kerala Legislative Assembly]] led by Indian National Congress Leader [[K. Karunakaran]] that lasted for a mere 32 days.

K. Karunakaran took charge as the [[Chief Minister of Kerala]] on 25 March 1977. However, he tendered his resignation on 25 April 1977, following certain references by the [[Kerala High Court]] in what came to be known as the [[Rajan case]].

Upon resignation, he was replaced by [[A. K. Antony]] as the Chief Minister.
