B Correct answer
Explanation

The Speaker of the Vidhan Sabha is elected by the members of the Legislative Assembly from among themselves, not appointed by the Governor. In contrast, the Chief Minister is appointed by the Governor, other ministers are appointed on the CM's advice, and the State PSC Chairman is also a gubernatorial appointment. This reflects the separation between the executive and legislative branches at the state level.
