Nomination and election of the Deputy Governor

Section 187(1) · 1999 Constitution (2004 edition)

What Constitution says

(1) In any election to which the foregoing provisions of this part of this Chapter relate a candidate for the office of Governor of a State shall not be deemed to have been validly nominated for such office unless he nominates another candidate as his associate for his running for the office of Governor, who is to occupy the office of Deputy Governor; and that candidate shall be deemed to have been duly elected to the office of Deputy Governor if the candidate who nominated him is duly elected as Governor in accordance with the said provisions.

This is the 1999 Constitution as published in 2004. Later amendments aren't included yet, so a section may have changed since.
