India’s Constitution was officially adopted on November 26, 1949, and it became effective on January 26, 1950. This significant event led to Dr. Rajendra Prasad being elected as India’s first President, marking the beginning of the nation’s constitutional governance.
In July 2022, Ram Nath Kovind concluded his tenure as 14th President of India. Despite being eligible for another term, he chose not to seek re-election. Consequently, Draupadi Murmu was elected as the 15th Indian President in July 2022, a decision made by the electoral college.
