After the committee constituted by the RS Chairman concludes its inquiry and if it agrees that there are enough reasons for the judge to be removed, the Rajya Sabha will entertain a motion for removal of the Judge.
Under the procedure, the Judge will have the chance to rebut the case for his removal either personally or through a counsel.
If the motion is passed by two-thirds majority of the members of both the Rajya Sabha and the Lok Sabha present and voting, the President is then requested to issue the order for the judge’s removal. If it goes through, it will be the first impeachment of a sitting judge.
