The Governor of State in India is _______

  • A.directly elected by the people of India
  • B.appointed by the State Chief Minister
  • C.appointed by the Prime Minister
  • D.appointed by the President

Answer: D

The governor of a state is appointed by the president, under Article 155, and holds office during the president's pleasure.

In practice the appointment is made on the advice of the union council of ministers, which is why the office has often been criticised as an agent of the centre in the state.
