Detailed Solution

The Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) of India is appointed by the President of India. In India, the elections are conducted by an independent body called the Election Commission of India.

The Constitution ensures his term and salary and can't be influenced by the ruling government. Although there are provisions through which the Commissioner may be removed, they are almost impossible to pull off.
