Verbatim text

The index holds no text for this record. Nothing is being quoted here, and nothing should be attributed to it.

What this means

  • The index files this text under article 155 of the Constitution of India.
  • The index files it under the chapter heading “CHAPTER II.—T HE EXECUTIVE — The Governor”.

The row’s stored title is a body fragment, not a heading (“The Governor of a State shall be appointed by the President by warrant under his hand and seal.”), so it is not used as the provision’s title here.

The index gives this passage an article number but stores a body fragment where a heading would be, so the number could not be cross-checked against the text. Check it against the official Constitution before relying on it in a citation.

The index holds no text for this record, so there is nothing to summarise.

This is a mechanical reading aid generated from the text above by matching words in it. It is not legal advice, not a lawyer’s interpretation, and not a substitute for the provision itself.
