Accepted Answer

3 only. The process of removal of Judges of the Supreme Court and High Courts is mentioned in Article 124(4) of the Constitution, which asserts that the Judges of the Supreme Court and High Courts shall not be removed from his office except by an order of the President passed after an address by each House of Parliament supported by a majority of the total membership of that House and by a majority of not less than two third of the members of that House present and voting has been presented to the President in the same session for such removal on the ground of proved misbehaviour or incapacity. According to Article 148 of the Constitution, there shall be a Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG), who shall be appointed by the President and shall only be removed from office in like manner and on the like grounds as a Judge of the Supreme Court. Article 317 (1) of the Constitution asserts that the Chairman or any other member of a Public Service Commission shall only be removed from his office by order of the President on the ground of misbehavior. Hence Parliament does not play any role on the removal of Chairman of the Union Public Service Commission.
