The president of India will be elected by an electoral college, which includes both houses of parliament and the members of the legislative assemblies of all the states.
Sputnik is live from New Delhi, where the Indian government is holding its 16th presidential elections. The two candidates are Yashwant Sinha, a former BJP leader backed by the opposition parties, and Draupadi Murmu, an Odisha politician nominated by the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA), which controls the Indian government.
