Answer:
Article 153 to 167 in Part VI of the Indian Constitution deals with the state executive, coursing of Governor as executive head, chief minister, council of ministers and advocate general.
A governor of state is nominal executive head , and it acts as an agent of central government therefore it has a dual role.
Earlier before 7th constitutional amendment each state had a governor but after the amendment of 1956 facilitated the appointment of the same person for two or more states .
Governor is appointed by president of India.
Article 157 of Indian Constitution comments on the qualifications for appointment as
1 He should be a citizen of India.
2 He should have completed the age of 35 years.
However conditions mentioned are
He should not be a member of either of the house of parliament or of the state legislature .
And he should not hold any other office of profit.
There are two more conventions developed in this regard over the years.
1 He should be an outsider(to the state).
As this will prevent him from involving into local politics and interests , and practice it's position with utmost sincerity and neutral .
2 While appointing the governor the president is required to consult such names with the chief minister of the state concerned .
But violation of these two conventions have been seen in some cases.
Hope this works better till govt. of India adopts a new amendment …
