Q. Which is a constitutional qualification for appointment as Governor? (MPPSC Assistant Prof 2024)
Answer: He/she has completed the age of 35 years
Notes: Article 157 of the Indian Constitution specifies that a Governor must be a citizen of India and at least 35 years old. Holding an office of profit disqualifies a candidate, rather than serving as a qualification. There is no constitutional requirement regarding the Governor's residency in the state they govern; residency is a convention but not mandated by law.
