The Governor of a State is appointed by the President by warrant under his hand and ______.
- Seal of the State
- Seal of the Union
- Signature of the Prime Minister
- Advice of the Council of Ministers
Answer: Seal of the Union
Article 155 states: 'The Governor of a State shall be appointed by the President by warrant under his hand and seal.' The 'seal' refers to the Seal of the Union (not State), emphasizing that the Governor is a Union appointee representing the Centre in the State. This reflects the federal balance in India's quasi-federal structure.
