Compensation  I believe that the compensation section should include details about whether the compensation mentioned is per month or annual and it should also mention the source I am unable to find the info so the person who first created the section please help      Vajpayee remains PM till new pm is asked to form a government   is this accurate  All the news stories I saw said that Vajpayee resigned immediately and his resignation was accepted by the president This is not possible    He did in fact resign and the president did accept it However as is custom the president asked him to continue in office til alternative arrangements are made The Hindu httpwwwhinduonnetcomthehinduholnushtm    Was Manmohan Singh swornin on the th or did he merely become the designate I have not seen anything saying he IS now PM     How about this The article quite unequivocally states that Abdul Kalam appointed Singh PM Is it a technical point that he is PM only after hes been sworn in       To summarise the entire process once the election results in India are declared the President has the prerogative to invite any person by convention  the elected leader of the single largest partycoalition Note again  the chosen leader of the party does not have to be a member of the parliament as yet to form the government Please note that invitation is not equal to appointment If it is clear that the ruling party is getting the boot the Prime Minister formally submits his resignation to the President who advises him to stay in power until alternate arrangements are made Technically the new Prime Minister takes charge the moment the oath to the office of the Prime Minister and the oath to safeguard official secrecy are adminsitered In case of disputed numbers the elected government must prove its majority on the parliament hall by tabling a confidence motion within a stipulated period And if the leader is unelected heshe is required to get elected from either houses of parliament within six months   The case of the Parliament is a little more curious The parliament is born on the day of its first session when the individual members are sworn in So technically as on date India has a government without a parliament It would continue to remain so until June  when the monsoon session convenes     Thanks  for the clarification      First nonHindu The article currently states that Manmohan Singh is the first nonHindu to be PM I know that a number of newspaper articles have been repeating this but I think its wrong or at least disputable in that Rajiv Gandhi was a Parsee At any rate his father Feroze Gandhi was halfMuslim and halfParsee and if Im not mistaken Zoroastrianism was the religion passed down to Rajiv and Sanjay not that anybody in the family is exactly religious     Guest Book on website of PM India   Guest Book on website of  httpwwwpmindianicin is not working for last two years Similarly write to the PM India in  characters should be increased to  characters   Please use this page for discussing the article only Broken links for guest book should be reported to the sitemaster of pmindianicin website not to this page Word limit of write to PM is also irrelevent to the articles discussion      Powerful person PM of super Power India I have informed the Government of Pakistan for help and to maintain the Guest Book of PM of India as the same is not possible from Indian Engineers     The I in CongressI does not stand for Indira I think it stands for Indicate When Indira split the congress hers was the breakaway faction So what later became CongressO  o for organisation was the Congress Indiras faction had to indicate itself and hence CongressIndicate Later since she wrested co
