    The correct answer is Article 61.

    • The removal of India’s President is done through the process of Impeachment.
    • Article 61 of the Indian constitution provides the procedure of impeachment of the President.
    • President can be impeached for violation of the Constitution.
    • The impeachment can be initiated in any house i.e. Upper house or lower house of the Parliament.
    • The charges on the president for impeachment should be signed by one-fourth of members of the House.
    • A 14-day prior notice is required to be given to the President.
    • The resolution of impeachment must be passed with a majority of two-thirds of both the houses to remove the President from his office.
    • The President shall be considered removed from the date on which the resolution is passed in both houses. 
    • No president has been impeached so far in India.
