Which statement about State Executive is CORRECT?
- Governor can dismiss Chief Minister without any reason
- Council of Ministers aids and advises Governor in all matters
- Chief Minister has no role in appointment of Advocate General

Answer: Council of Ministers aids and advises Governor in all matters
Article 163(1): Council of Ministers with CM at head aids and advises Governor in exercise of functions, except where Governor is required to act in discretion. Supreme Court in Shamsher Singh (1974) affirmed that Governor generally acts on Cabinet advice. Other options are incorrect: Governor cannot arbitrarily dismiss CM; CM advises on AG appointment; Governor's ordinances are subject to judicial review.
