Correct Answer:
B. Governor
Explanation:
The Governor serves as the constitutional and executive head of a state government in India, exercising powers similar to those of the President at the central level. According to the Constitution of India, all executive actions of a state are formally taken in the name of the Governor. While the Chief Minister is the real executive head who manages day-to-day administration, the Governor holds the formal vesting of executive power, acts as the ceremonial head, and is responsible for constitutional duties such as appointing the Chief Minister and other ministers.
