Governor of Odisha


                        The governor is de jure head of the state government; all its executive actions are taken in the governor's name. However, the governor must act on the advice of the popularly elected council of ministers, headed by the chief minister, which thus holds de facto executive authority at the state-level.

                             The Governor of Odisha is a nominal head and representative of the President of India in the state of Odisha . The Governor is appointed by the President for a period of 5 years.
