List Of Governors Of Kerala
The governor of Kerala is the constitutional head of state of the southern Indian state of Kerala.

However, the governor must act on the advice of the popularly elected council of ministers, headed by the chief minister of Kerala, who thus holds ''de facto'' executive authority in the state. The Constitution of India also empowers the governor to act upon his or her own discretion, such as the ability to appoint or dismiss a ministry, recommend President's rule, or reserve bills for the president's assent. Over the years, the exercise of these discretionary powers have given rise to conflict between the elected chief minister and the central government–appointed governor.Durga Das Basu.
