Which one of the following is not correctly matched?Select the correct answer from the code given below:

1. A

   Article 153 – Office of the Governor

   Option (a) claims that Article 153 deals with the Office of the Governor. This pairing is correct, as the Constitution indeed provides for the office of the Governor for each state under this article.

2. B

   Article 154 – Executive Authority of the Governor

   Option (b) claims that Article 154 pertains to the Executive Authority of the Governor. This pairing is correct because the executive power of the state is vested in the Governor and exercised by him in accordance with the Constitution.

3. C

   Article 155 – Removal of the Governor

   Option (c) claims that Article 155 provides for the Removal of the Governor, which is incorrectly matched. Article 155 actually deals with the appointment of the Governor by the President, while the removal is governed by Article 156 under the pleasure of the President, making this the correct choice for the question asking for the incorrect match.

4. D

   Article 156 – Term of the Governor

   Option (d) claims that Article 156 relates to the Term of the Governor. This pairing is correct, as it specifies that the Governor holds office during the pleasure of the President for a normal term of five years.

Summary. Official key is (c) because Article 155 actually deals with the appointment of the Governor, not his removal. Aspirants frequently confuse the articles related to the Governor's appointment and term with provisions for removal. Article 156 outlines the term of office and the doctrine of the President's pleasure under which a Governor serves. Therefore, option (c) is the only incorrectly matched pair among the given constitutional provisions.
