Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. his/her successor enters his/her office.

A Governor shall, notwithstanding the expiration of his term, continue to hold office until his/her successor enters his/her office. This provision ensures that there is no administrative vacuum and that the duties and responsibilities of the Governor are continuously fulfilled. The outgoing Governor remains in office to ensure a smooth transition and the proper functioning of the state administration until the new Governor is formally appointed and takes over the responsibilities.
