A
Correct answer
Explanation
The President of India serves a fixed 5-year term under Article 56, though re-election is possible. In contrast, the Prime Minister has no fixed tenure - they serve as long as they enjoy majority support in the Lok Sabha. Chief Justices retire at 65 and Governors serve at the President's pleasure - neither has a guaranteed fixed term.
