President is always said to be the Head of States.
He is the nominal ruler where each and every government decision was upholded on the name of The President Of India.
He is the head of THE TRIVIDA-DALAS namely Army, Navy and Airforce.
He is the one who appoints CJ(Chief Justice) of Supreme Court, Other judges, Chief Election Commissioner, Governors,etc with the consultation Of PMO.
He will be the one who represents Nation.
He also has some discretionary Powers such that they are as follows:-
1> Suspensive veto: The President exercises this veto when he returns a bill (not money bill) for reconsideration of the parliament.
(However if the bill is passed again by the Parliament with or without amendments and presented again to the President, it is obligatory for him to give his assent to the bill.)
2) Pocket veto: in this case , the President neither ratifies nor reject nor return the bill, but simply keeps the bill pending for an indefinite period as the time limit within which the President has to take the decision with respect to a bill presented to him for assent, has not been mentioned in the constitution.
3) under article 78 the President enjoys the right to seek information from the PM regarding the administration of the affairs of the union.
4) under the established convention, the President has the right to warn or encourage the Council of Minister (CoM) in the exercise of its power.
5) Under A85 if the CoM do not properly advise the President in summoning the season of the parliament in such a way that not more than six months lapse between two season, then the President can summon the season of the Parliament in his discretion.
6) when no political party or coalition of parties enjoy the majority in Lok Sabha, then the President has discretion in inviting the leader of that party or coalition of parties who in his opinion is able to form a stable government.
7) The President can dissolve Lok Sabha only on the advice of CoM but the advice is binding only if the government is a majority government.
8) A caretaker government does not enjoy majority in Lok Sabha and hence it is not expected to take major decisions but only to make day-to-day administrative decision. It is for the President to decided the day-to-day decisions.
