The Vice President cannot be removed by a resolution passed by both the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. The Vice President can only be removed by a resolution of the Rajya Sabha passed by most members and agreed to by the Lok Sabha. However, such a resolution can only be moved after giving at least 14 days' written notice, specifying the grounds on which the resolution is to be moved; and the Vice President has been allowed to be heard in his defence.
