B. The Prime Minister of India
C. The President of India
D. The Governor of State

Answer 1

Hint: He/She is also known as the nominal head of the state and their appointment is done by the President of India. The State Finance Commission is also established by him/her.

Complete answer:
Just like the President is the head of the Indian republic, in the same manner the Governor is considered the head of the state. TheChief Minister is treated as the executive head of the state on the other hand the Governor is considered the nominal head of the state. In a state, all the executive are to be taken in the name of the Governor. Though the real executive decisions are taken by the Chief Minister of the state and the council of state. The Governor isn't allowed to take any major executive decisions. The real executive powers are in the hands of the Chief Minister and the Council of Ministers.As indicated by an amendment in the Constitution of India, achieved in 1956, at least two states can have the same person as the Governor. Aside from the lead representatives in the states, Lieutenant Governors are selected in Union Territories of Delhi, Andaman Nicobar Island and Puducherry. Both, Governor of a state and the Lieutenant Governor of a union territory have equal powers and both are also appointed by the President for a same duration of time that is 5 years. All bills passed by the Legislative Assembly become a law, simply after the Governor favors them. The Governor holds the option to send the bill back to the Vidhan Sabha for reevaluation only if it isn't the money bill.

Hence, the correct answer is option (D).

Note:The first woman to become a Governor of a state in India was Sarojini Naidu. She was the Governor of Uttar Pradesh from 15 August 1947 till her demise on 2 March 1949.
