The Prime Minister’s post.

In India, the president’s post is akin to the British queen’s post. Because India is a democratic republic, the British queen couldn’t be allowed to be the head of state, as is the case in Australia and Canada.

Most of the powers in the Indian system is in the hands of the Prime Minister and his/her selected Cabinet of Ministers.

Oh. Then the Pres would be the one with the gavel in front of the Parliament. Like Pelosi or Reid.
