Q. The constitution says that the state council can hold the office during the pleasure of the governor. The word “pleasure of the governor” in reality means?
Solution:
Theoretically the ministers hold office during the pleasure of the Governor. It means so long as they continue to have a majority support in the State Legislative Assembly. In fact they hold office during the pleasure of the Chief Minister. The Chief Minister can ask any minister to resign and his desire is always fulfilled by the concerned minister. If he resists, the Chief Minister can advise the Governor to dismiss him. The Governor always accepts such an advice. The Chief Minister can cause the fall of the ministry by tendering his own resignation to the Governor. As such virtually a minister holds office so long as he enjoys the confidence of the Chief Minister.
