Presidency

On March 26, 1977, Neelam Sanjiva Reddy was elected unanimously as the speaker of the Lok Sabha. But on 13 July 1977, he left the post because he was being nominated for the presidential post. Reddy had already made it clear that he would file nomination papers only if he is unanimously nominated for the presidential post. This time it was not in the mood to take any risk. They were scared of repeating the old history. Ultimately, all fears were proved and Neelam Sanjiva Reddy was unanimously elected the eighth president unopposed. All political parties chose him as President on the voice of conscience. Thus a unique political event has happened in this period. On 19th July 1977, the work of investigating the nomination papers was done. In addition to Reddy's nomination, there was a deficit. All on this basis were rejected. In total, 21 nominations were filed, some of which were not supported by the number of MLAs and MPs required by the candidates or the candidates did not deposit the security deposit of Rs.2500. The name could have been withdrawn on July 21 by 3 o'clock in the evening.

Presidential Election

After the President was elected, Neelam Sanjiva Reddy gave a funny statement to the journalists, "The speaker is seen but he is not heard but the President is seen and heard only."

Neelam Sanjiva Reddy's 50-year-old political life was also with him after becoming the President. For this reason he was going to be very experienced and qualified president. He was elected unopposed in 1977 after the formation of the Janata Party government, at the time when there was almost no survival in the center of the Congress party. He discharged healthy historical traditions and maintained equal coordination and cooperation from the Congress party, when Congress came to power in 1980. In the meantime, Reddy, in the same way as the Presidential stipulation, had arranged for the constitutional post of the President for our performance in the form of our legendary leaders.

In his presidential career, Reddy made two prime ministers and held the three Prime Ministers. It was Prime Minister Morarji Desai, Chaudhary Charan Singh and Mrs. Indira Gandhi. Thus, Reddy completed his term with full dignity, then returned to his ideal home town, Anantapur in Andhra Pradesh. A few days ago he had organized a press briefing before he was relieved of the responsibilities of the presidential tenure. Reddy accepted the press conference that he was feeling lonely when the Janata Party split due to intermittent reasons. The scam of the Janata Party, the resignation by Morarji Desai and the incidents of Chaudhary Charan Singh becoming Prime Minister and coming to the minority are very tragic. In view of these incidents, Reddy clarified that he had an emergency and had to take decisions on every occasion according to the President's constitutional limitations. Then using their discretion power, they made very difficult decisions.
