== Electoral system==
{{further|President of India#Selection process|Electoral College (India)}}
The [[President of India]] is [[Indirect election|indirectly elected]] by an [[Electoral College (India)|electoral college]] consisting of the elected members of both houses of [[Parliament of India|parliament]], the elected members of the [[State legislative assemblies of India|Legislative assemblies]] of the 28 states and the elected members of the legislative assemblies of the union territories of [[Delhi]],  [[Puducherry (union territory)|Puducherry]] and [[Jammu and Kashmir (union territory)|Jammu and Kashmir]]. As of 2022, the electoral college comprises 776 [[Member of Parliament (India)|MP]]s and 4,123 [[Member of Legislative Assembly (India)|MLA]]s.
 
The system assigns varying numbers of votes to these electoral college members, such that the total weight of MPs and those of MLAs is roughly equal and that the voting power of states and territories are proportional to their population. Overall the members of the electoral college were eligible to cast 1,098,903 votes, yielding a threshold for a majority of 549,452 votes.
 
The nomination of a candidate for election to the office of the President must be subscribed by at least 50 electors as proposers and 50 electors as seconders. The election is held by means of a [[secret ballot]] under the [[Instant-runoff voting]] system.<ref>The Constitution of 1950 use the term [[Single transferable vote]], which is now used for a system with multiple-member constituencies. When there is only one of the latter, the system is now called [[Instant-runoff voting]]</ref> The manner of election of President is provided by Article 55 of the [[Constitution of India|Constitution]].


==Background==
Article 58 of the [[Constitution of India|Indian Constitution]] provides that the [[President of India|President]] and [[Vice President of India|Vice President]] of India must be citizens of India, and at least 35 years old. The Presidential candidate must be qualified for elections in the same way as a member of the [[Lok Sabha]], and must not hold any office of profit under the Indian government.<ref>{{Cite web |title=The Constitution of India |url=https://legislative.gov.in/sites/default/files/COI-updated.pdf}}</ref> Candidates for the presidency typically seek the nomination of one of the political parties, in which case each party devises a method (such as a [[primary election]]) to choose the candidate the party deems best suited to run for the position. Traditionally, the primary elections are [[indirect election]]s where voters cast ballots for a slate of party delegates pledged to a particular candidate. The party's delegates then officially nominate a candidate to run on the party's behalf. The general election in July is also an indirect election, where voters cast ballots for a slate of members of the Electoral College; these electors in turn directly elect the president and vice president.
Article 58 of the [[Constitution of India|constitution]] sets the qualifications one must meet to be eligible to the office of the president. A president must be:


* a [[Indian nationality law|citizen of India]]
The returning officer for the election was Anoop Mishra, the [[Secretary General of the Lok Sabha]].
* of 35 years of age or above
* qualified to become a member of the [[Lok Sabha]]


Ram Nath Kovind was elected President in the [[2017 Indian presidential election]], and is expected to remain in office till 25 July 2022. During his [[Presidency of Ram Nath Kovind|presidency]], he made trips to 28 countries, each for a state visit. He has received the highest State honors from six countries, and has held the office during the [[COVID-19 pandemic]] and subsequent [[COVID-19 lockdowns|lockdowns]]. He is a potential candidate of the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]], but has not been nominated by the party.
== Election schedule ==
Under sub-section (1) of Section (4) of the Presidential and Vice-Presidential Elections Act 1952, the schedule for the election of the [[President of India]] has been announced by the [[Election Commission of India]] on 9 June 2022.<ref name=":0" />
