Solution

The correct option is C 5 years
The governor is appointed by the President of India for a term of five years and holds office at the President's pleasure. The Constitution endows the Governor with the executive power of the State. However, the Governor acts as a nominal head, and the real executive powers are exercised by the Chief Minister along with the Council of Ministers.
