Article 58 of the Indian constitution lays down the principal qualifications to be met by a person to be a candidate for the election to the office of the President of India. On the other hand, Article 55 of the constitution defines the manner in which the election must be conducted.
Elected members of the two houses of Parliament, elected members of the State Legislative Assemblies and elected members of the Legislative Assemblies of the two Union Territories, viz. Delhi and Puducherry, form the electoral college for the election of the President of India.
