The Governor of a State in India is appointed by the President and holds office during the pleasure of the President. While acting on the advice of the state Council of Ministers, the Governor also has constitutional duties and responsibilities that link them to the Union government and the President. The Governor is responsible for reporting to the President about the state's affairs and can reserve bills for the President's consideration. This signifies a direct accountability to the President. Consequently, the Governor's actions are indirectly linked to the Parliament, as the President and the Union government are accountable to the Parliament.
