By Darpan Singh: India’s President does not exercise executive powers, but all executive decisions are carried out in her name. She is required by the Constitution to act on the advice of the council of ministers led by the Prime Minister. But the President can ask the government to reconsider actions and offer advice. In matters of legislation, for example. So, it would be wrong to say that the role is only ceremonial or that the President is a mere figurehead or rubber stamp. Now, how does the election happen? THE POLL PROCESS • The President is elected by members of the Electoral College comprising elected members of both Houses of Parliament, and elected members of the Legislative Assemblies of all states and the National Capital Territory of Delhi and the Union Territory of Puducherry. • This means nominated members of the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha or Legislative Assemblies of states are not part of the Electoral College. Similarly, members of Legislative Councils also do not participate in the election process. • The value of votes of MPs and MLAs varies based on the population of states they come from. • It is mandatory for 50 MPs to propose the candidate, followed by another 50 seconding the candidature. • Polling will be held in the Parliament House and on the premises of the State Legislative Assemblies. • The election is held by secret ballot. A single transferable vote is used per the system of proportional representation. • On the ballot paper, there are t...
