{'governor': [5, 1, 0, 6], 'chief minister': [7, 1, 1, 4], 'judges': [2, 0, 1, 2], 'supreme court': [12, 1, 4, 14], 'constitution': [39, 3, 11, 39], 'states': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'more states': [1, 1, 1, 9], 'president': [4, 0, 2, 1], 'india': [8, 1, 7, 13], 'union territory': [4, 0, 0, 1]}

Option 1 states that the same person cannot be appointed as Governor for two or more states at the same time. This is incorrect. In India, it is possible for the same person to be appointed as Governor for two or more states simultaneously.

Option 2 states that the judges of the High Court of the States in India are appointed by the Governor of the State, similar to how the judges of the Supreme Court are appointed by the President. This is incorrect. The judges of the High Court are not appointed by the Governor but rather by the President of India.

Option 3 states that no procedure has been laid down in the Constitution of India for the removal of a Governor from his post. This is correct. The Constitution of India does not provide a specific procedure for the removal of a Governor.

Option 4 states that in the case of a Union Territory with a legislative setup, the Chief Minister is appointed by the Lt. Governor. This is correct. In Union Territories with a legislative assembly, the Chief Minister is appointed by the Lt. Governor.

Therefore, the correct statement is option 3.
