Abraham--Thanks for the explaination--but we are aware of the simple fact. By law there is no problem in being PM from Rajyasabha. But whatever is law is not necessarily the best. Everyone is entitled to their views and I like others believe The Prime minister should come from Loksabha(If it is current political system, can change if some other formation comes) The Prime Minister should directly be liable to the People of India(In this case to his constituency) People of PM's constituency will judge the candidate should win atall--Being PM is next step. Anyways--This is just belief--Who cares--I am not Ambedkar after all. How can we even think there can be other ways that Ambedkar or Gandhi din't show? They are fathers after all. :)

In my opinion, PM should always be from Lok sabha and he should reach parliment by we ,the people of india only, not by the set of MPs. It brings the direct connectivity of leader of country to the people of country.

yes the prime ministerial candidate should be a Loksabha member so that the person will be elected by the people not by the legislatures.

The PM should not only selected by people (MP), the process of nominating after election should also change.
I don’t like idea of any ERA-GARA becoming PM who has no quality/vision to lead the nation but becomes PM because of family/family loyalty or with 45-50 MPs(we have already seen 3-4 PMs in monthly tenures) .
The political party should announce their PM candidate before election and people should select directly to them, no other candidate should allowed to become PM after election and using bypass(Rajya Sabha).
God bless India!!!

The person wishing to become PM must have wide public acceptability which can be ascertained only if he faces the electorate in a democracy. A Rajya Sabha member may be an eminent personality but may also be elected by political manipulation in the Indian democracy to further the cause of a particular family.

In my opinion, the PM candidate should contest the election and should be a member of Lokh Sabha. Rajya Sabha membership is left with parties where as Lokh Sabha membership is decided by the public.

Yes, Definitely,a person who will be a prime minister of our country should be a member of Lok Sabha.
Until and unless a candidate is contesting and winning a seat in Lok Sabha , how can he or she be a Prime Minister of our country because if a candidate is not chosen by the public to lead them since a primary requirement for being an MP is to win the votes of the public., so if that also a candidate doesn't win then he is failed in the first step itself and a failure can't be a PM of such a big country.
So, i think a person who will be a PM should contest Lok Sabha elections.
Thanks,
Ankit

i second shajuand sudeep tarafadar but I personally feel all the pm aspirants should participate in a 100m race from india gate to parliament first . then & then only their suitability for the prized post can be adjudged best.
if a pm can run , he can make hindustan run in the direction of +ve development.

yes i also agree that PM should contest the elections from lok sabha otherwise its not correct by political parties to elect somebody as our prime minister who will run the country for 5 years without actually choosing him as our leader.

Shaju hats off to you for creating this hot debate. yes i completely agree with you that prime minister should contest the elections from lok sabha because we just vote for the members who are standing from our states, regions etc. and based on which a particular party comes into power and they themselves decide to whom to elect the prime minister of the country which is not fair for the general public because we don't get to decide our prime minister.
so yes prime minister should contest the elections from lok sabha.
what do you guys say???

According to me, in present political scenario envisaging only a coalition government, discussion of a would be Prime Minister is meaningless. There are many leaders in different political parties, to give some much needed rest to a 'good hearted' ex P.M. The P.M debate happened only because BJP had pushed Congress to name one, hoping an in fight to happen among senior leaders in Congress party on this issue. Also BJP must have hoped that Congress Party would be naive enough to name Rahul Gandhi as P.M, giving them a sharper weapon and easier target. The issue in this election is not who will become Prime Minister. This election will be a turning point in Indian politics in which both BJP and Congress would suffer heavy loss and hence will have lesser say in formation of Central Government. Votes of other than the hard core party followers will be divided between the National parties (BJP & Congress), the regional parties and Independents. Future of the country depends on how various regional parties get grouped together themselves to form a government with or without support of one or the other national parties. The outcome of such coalition will surely depend on common acceptance, initially of P.M and then the Ministers from various parties in the coalition. It will not be surprising if there are many PMs, Deputy PMs and panel of ministers in rotation during the tenure. If it happens to be a ten party coalition, there will be a new P.M and new set of Ministers in every six months. Also we will have dozens of PMs and hundreds of Ministers in waiting. With so many Independents in the fray, every M.P in the coalition will be a minister in wating. Look to where the politicians have hijacked the country's fate. (May God save this country). It all reminds me of the old saying in my vernacular "Pothu janam kazhutha allo" (Sorry, no offence meant)

i beg to differ on your views sir, it is right that the person of PM's calibre should pass the floor test called direct voting by electorate, but, pl think as per our constitution any one who enjoys the majority of MP's in parliament can become PM.nominating any person as PM before polls is just a mimick and voter does not have any say if other person has been chosen as PM after polls.in my opinion, it is highly irrevelent that PM should be from Lok sabha only bcoz there is no much difference in the origin of PM candidate as he/she tends to work according to his/her party ideology.

Friends, Election is round the corner. This is the time, to take the statements of politicians lightly. Becoz they are intended to impress/confuse the voters. This statement is specifically to target PM & PM (I mean Prime Minister & Pranab Mukherjee). In all years of his political career, why LKAdvani ji did not get this idea before? For full 5 years, he was in position of power to implement this.
This suggestion is also not as simple as it appears. If he is serious about this, he should come out with comlplete proposal on role of Lok Sabha & Rajya Sabha, limitations of powers of their members. He should also explain, if Rajya Sabha member can not become PM, what is the function of Rajya Sabha in Democratic set-up?
