India is a very large nation, both in terms of size and population. This makes government in India tricky. In this lesson, we'll talk about some people who tackled the office of prime minister, and see how they impacted the nation's history.
The Prime Minister of India
The nation of India is not an easy place to govern. It's huge, has one of the largest and densest populations in the world, is deeply divided by social castes, and is a relatively young country, only achieving independence from Britain in 1947. So, whose job is it to manage this?
The head of India's government is the President of India, but this is largely a ceremonial position. Most real power lies with the chief executive, a position called the Prime Minister. India adopted this from the British system after being a part of the British Empire for years, and also kept the British use of a legislative Parliament.
The largest bloc within Parliament is responsible for electing the Prime Minister. The President is then responsible for formally appointing the Prime Minister to his/her office. Get how that works? As of 2016, India has had 15 Prime Ministers, including one person who served twice. Let's get to know a few of them and see what it takes to be the Prime Minister of India.
