Power and Functions of the Prime Minister of India

There is no special process for the election of the Prime Minister in the Constitution of India. Article 75 only says that India shall have a Prime Minister whose appointment shall be made by the President. The Prime Minister is the leader of the Council of Ministers. The President is the only nominal ruler while the real executive powers are envisaged in the Prime Minister. In this article, we have explained about the Power and Functions of the Prime Minister of India.

The main functions of Prime Minister related to the Council of Ministers are as follows:

1. The Prime Minister recommends the names of members of his team to appoint as a Minister. The President can only make those people as ministers whose names are recommended by the Prime Minister.

2. The President recommends the names of members of his team to appoint a minister. The President can appoint only those persons the ministers who are recommended by the Prime Minister.

3. Prime Minister determines that which department will be given to which minister and he can also change the allotted department of any Minister.

4. He also presides over the meeting of the Council of Ministers and can change the decisions according to his wishes.

5. He can ask any minster to resign or advise the president to dismiss him in case of differences of opinion.

6. He also controls and directs the activities of all Ministers.

7. He can bring about the collapse of the Council of Ministers by resigning from office.

Note : If the Prime Minister resigns from his post or dies, then other ministers can’t do any work, that means the Council of Ministers dissolve itself with the death/resignation of the Prime Minister
