VOICED : El parlamento de India comienza votación para elegir presidente

The transcript discusses the Indian presidential election, highlighting Draupadi Murmu, a candidate from a marginalized ethnic community, as the favorite. The role of the president in India is largely ceremonial, but the election is significant as it involves choosing both the president and vice president. If elected, Murmu would be the first tribal woman to become president and the second woman in India's history to hold the position. The president is elected for a five-year term by approximately 5,000 legislators. While the prime minister holds executive power, the president can return bills for reconsideration and plays a role in government formation. The election results will be announced within the week.
