The Prime Minister of India is, in practice, the most powerful person in the Government of India . The Prime Minister is technically outranked by the head of state , the President of India . But, as is typical in most parliamentary democracies , because the head of state's duties are largely ceremonial , the Prime Minister is the head of government and has effective responsibility for executive power .
India follows a parliamentary system of government, known as the Westminster system after that of the United Kingdom . In this system, the Prime Minister is generally the leader of a party (or coalition of parties) that has a majority in the Lok Sabha , the lower house of the Parliament of India . The Prime Minister either has to be a current member of one of the houses of Parliament , or be elected within six months of being appointed.

* Interim - It is debatable whether Mr. Gulzari Lal Nanda was a Prime Minister or an Acting Prime Minister. The constitution does not have a position of acting Prime Minister. Mr. Nanda was sworn in as the Prime Minister of India. In contrast, the constitution provides for an acting President who discharges the duties of a President. Hence, constitutional experts and historians now agree that Mr. Nanda is the second Prime Minister of India.
