Under which Article of the Indian Constitution can a judge of the Supreme Court or a High Court be removed by an order of the President passed after an address by each House of Parliament supported by a special majority?

A. Article 124(4)✓ Correct Answer
B. Article 129
C. Article 217
D. Article 226

💡 Solution & Explanation

Article 124(4) prescribes the precise removal mechanism for Supreme Court judges, which requires an address by each House of Parliament supported by a majority of its total membership and a two-thirds majority of members present and voting. Provisions like Article 129 deal with the court of record status rather than judge removal.
