Explanation:
Rajendra Prasad, the first President of India, remains till today the only President to have been re-elected for a second term. In fact, having been chosen President when India became a Republic in 1950, he got two years extra till his first formal election in 1952, making it a total of 12 years as President.
He was inducted as Member of the Interim Government headed by Jawaharlal Nehru in September, 1946 and was allocated the Food and Agriculture portfolio. He continued in the same portfolio after independence in the first cabinet of Nehru and was listed at number 3 in the order of seniority of the Council of Ministers after Nehru and Patel.
Under the Indian Independence Act the (Central) Legislative Assembly stood automatically dissolved on August 15, 1947 and the Constituent Assembly became the supreme sovereign and legislative body of which Rajendra Prasad was already the President.
