Who appoints the Governors of the India State?1. Vice President2. President3. Prime Ministr4. Union Cabinet

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : President

The correct answer is option 2 i.e. The President of India.

Appointment of Governor

  • The Governor in India is neither directly elected by the people nor indirectly elected by an electoral college as in case of the President of India.
  • He is appointed by the President by warrant under President's hand and seal.
  • Thus Governor is considered a nominee of the Central government.
  • But, in 1979 Supreme Court held that the office of Governor of a state is not an employment under the Central government but an independent constitutional office, hence is not under the control of or subordinate to the Central government.
