A.
President
Answer
B.
Prime Minister
C.
Chief justice of India
D.
Attorney general

Answer: Option A

Solution

Answer: Option A
Solution:
Since Article-53(1) confers executive powers of Union of India to the President, he or she is the constitutional head of Indian government. But the real powers of governance are vested in the office of Prime Minister. That is why, Prime Minister in India is called the real head of government.
