- The procedure is governed by Rules 200 A of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in the Lok Sabha.
- The Speaker cannot decide the admissibility of the resolution as there’s charge against him.
- Deputy Speaker post is a mandatory provision by the Constitution as per Article 93.
- As there is no Deputy speaker on a resolution to remove the Speaker, the Speaker cannot chair the House.
