Legislative Branch
The federal legislative branch of India consists of a bicameral Parliament, divided into two houses: the Council of States and the House of the People.
The Council of States, known as the Rajya Sabha, has a constitutional limit of 250 members. Currently, 245 seats are filled in this parliamentary house. The President may appoint 12 members for their expertise in science, art, social sciences, or literatures. The remaining members are elected by the legislative bodies at the state and territory levels of government. The Council of States may serve for multiple, yet non-consecutive, 6-year terms and every two years, 33% of the members retire.
Executive Branch
The executive branch is responsible for the daily management of government activities. This branch is made up of the Council of Ministers, who are selected by Parliament, the President of the country, and the Prime Minister.
The President leads the Council with guidance from the Prime Minister and appoints a number of seats, including: state Governors, Attorney General, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, Chief Election Commissioner, and the Cabinet Secretary. Legally, the President also acts as Commander-in-Chief over the military.
Judicial Branch
The judicial branch of government is similar to that found in other European countries as it has retained many features from the British colonial era. This branch works independently of the executive and legislative branches. It consists of the Supreme Court of India, the High Courts at the state level, and the District and Sessions Courts at the local level. The leaders of the Supreme Court are appointed by the President, these positions include the Chief Justice and 30 associate judges, who are recommended by the Chief Justice of India.
