Current Affair 1:

News:

Just read Article 67(B) of the Indian Constitution:

1. The resolution must be passed by 50 per cent of the present members, plus one member, of those present in the House on that day.
2. The Lok Sabha must also agree to the resolution with a simple majority.
3. No resolution can be moved unless at least 14 days advance notice has been given.

If you focus on the above article, there is nowhere mentioned the term “chairman of Rajya Sabha”. Everywhere it is mentioning Vice President. It is the Vice-President who can be removed from the office of the Chairperson of Rajya Sabha, and not the Chairperson of Rajya Sabha as a separate entity.

While a resolution to remove vice President is under consideration: HE WILL NOT PRESIDE.
