A.	In his discretion
B.	In consultation with the Chief Justice of India
C.	In consultation with the Government of the State

Explanation: Article 258 of Indian constitution states that the President may, with the consent of the Government of a State, entrust either conditionally or unconditionally to that Government or to its officers functions in relation to any matter to which the executive power of the Union extends. There is no corresponding provision enabling the Governor of a State to entrust State functions to the Central Government or its officers.
