(a)राज्यघटनेच्या मसुड्यात राज्यपालाची निवडणूक प्रौढमताधिकाराने व्हावी अशी तरतूद होती. / The Draft Constitution provided for the direct election of the Governor on the basis of adult suffrage.
(b)राज्यपालाच्या नियुक्ती बाबत भारताने अमेरीकेची पद्धत नाकारून कॅनडीयन पद्धत स्विकारली. / About the appointment of Governor, India rejected the American system and accepted the Canadian system.
(c)42 व्या घटनादुरुस्तीनंतर मंत्रिमंडळाचा सल्ला राष्ट्रपतीवर बंधनकारक करण्यात आला आहे परंतु अशी तरतूद राज्यापाला संबंधी करण्यात आलेली नाही. / After the 42nd Amendment, ministerial advice has been made binding on the President, but no such provision has been made with respect to the Governor.
The Draft Constitution initially proposed direct election of the Governor by adult suffrage, but the Constituent Assembly later adopted the Canadian model of appointment by the President to avoid friction. Also, the 42nd Amendment made ministerial advice binding on the President, but no such explicit blanket amendment was made for Governors (though judicial pronouncements later clarified their discretionary powers). All statements are correct.
