{'chief minister': [7, 1, 1, 4], 'governor': [5, 1, 0, 6], 'attorney general': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'president': [4, 0, 2, 1], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'judge': [6, 1, 14, 17]}

The correct answer to the question, "Who appoints the Chief Minister of any state in India?" is option 2, the Governor of the state. In India, the Chief Minister is the elected leader of the political party or coalition that wins the majority of seats in the state legislative assembly. After the election, the Governor, who is the constitutional head of the state, invites the leader of the winning party or coalition to form the government and become the Chief Minister. The Governor`s role is crucial in the appointment of the Chief Minister as they play a significant part in the formation and dissolution of the state government. It is important to note that the President of India, option 1, does not directly appoint the Chief Minister of any state.
