The Governor of Jharkhand (Hindi: झारखंड के राज्यपाल) is the nominal head of state of the Indian state of Jharkhand and a representative of the president of India.[1] The governor is appointed by the president for a term of five years. Though all official affairs of the state are administered and carried out in the name of the governor, the real executive power rests with the chief minister who is a member of the legislative assembly and is the leader of the majority party in the house. The official residence of the governor is Raj Bhavan.
The position of the governor of Jharkhand came into existence following the creation of the state in November 2000 as a result of the bifurcation of Bihar. The first governor to be appointed was Prabhat Kumar who served in office between 2000 and 2002. The current governor is C. P. Radhakrishnan who has been in office since 23 February 2023.
