Presidential elections were held for the first time in the Maldives in 1952. They followed the approval of a new constitution in a referendum in March 1952, which had changed the country's system of governance from being a monarchy to a republic.
The result was a victory for Mohamed Amin Didi, who received almost 96% of the vote.[1] Amin Didi subsequently became the country's first President.[2]
