He also said the notice invoked Article 67, which mandates the prior notice of at least 14 days for any resolution contemplating the Vice-President’s removal. “Thus the December 10, 2024 notice of intention could permit such a resolution only after December 24, 2024,” he had noted, adding that the current session was set to conclude on December 20. “The actual interpretation of Article 67 is that the same resolution can be considered in the next session of the House even after the House is adjourned,” he said, adding that the Opposition parties can challenge the decision of the House.
