1.7. Removal of Judges

Article 217 (b) provides that the removal of the High Court judges will be done in a manner similar to that provided under Article 124(4) for the Supreme Court judges. Thus, based upon that, along with Judges Inquiry Act 1968, the impeachment of judges can be done only on grounds of ‘proved misbehaviour’ or ‘incapacity’ in a process explained for the Supreme Court judges.
