Governor of India

The Governor of India is the ceremonial head of a state, appointed by the President of India for a five-year term. While they represent the central government at the state level, their role is largely constitutional, performing duties like giving assent to state legislation, appointing the Chief Minister, and overseeing constitutional processes. The Governor acts as a bridge between the central and state governments, ensuring the state's administration functions smoothly within the framework of the Indian Constitution, without direct involvement in day-to-day governance.
