\nOption B correctly describes the procedure for removing the Speaker. According to Article 94(c) of the Constitution, the Speaker may be removed from office by a resolution of the House of the People passed by a majority of all the then members of the House. This refers to an effective majority.
\n<\/section>\n
\n– Removal of the Speaker requires a resolution of the Lok Sabha.
\n– The resolution must be supported by an effective majority (more than half of the *then* total membership of the House).
\n<\/section>\n
\n– Option A is incorrect as the removal is by the Lok Sabha itself, not by the President on a resolution.
\n– Option C is incorrect. A resolution for the removal of the Speaker or Deputy Speaker can only be moved after giving at least fourteen days’ notice of the intention to move the resolution (Article 94(c)).
\n– Option D is incorrect. In computing the period of notice (like the 14 days for removal), the terminal days are generally excluded. Standard legal practice typically excludes the day the notice is given and the day the event takes place.
