The correct answer is

Thirty-five years

Article 157 of the Constitution provides that a person is eligible to be appointed Governor only if he is a citizen of India and has completed the age of thirty-five years.

Article 158 adds conditions of office: he must not be a member of Parliament or a State Legislature or hold any office of profit.

Thirty years, twenty-five years and twenty years are not the prescribed ages (25 years applies to members of the Lok Sabha and State Assemblies, 30 to the Rajya Sabha).

Hence, the answer is Thirty-five years.
