Among the following, the officials who hold office during the pleasure of the President of India are:
- Attorney General of India
- Governors of states
This means these officials can be removed by the President at any time without a fixed tenure or the need for a parliamentary procedure, as their tenure depends on the President's satisfaction or pleasure
. In contrast, officials like the Comptroller and Auditor General of India do not hold office during the pleasure of the President; they have security of tenure and can only be removed through a parliamentary resolution, similar to Supreme Court judges
. Thus, the correct answer is that both the Attorney General of India and Governors of states hold office during the pleasure of the President.
