SHORT ANSWER: The involvement of both houses in the impeachment process ensures checks and balances, preventing arbitrary dismissal of public officials. DETAILS: - Both the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha must participate in the impeachment process, requiring a two-thirds majority in both houses for impeachment to succeed. - This dual involvement ensures that a public official can only be removed through a thorough and fair process, reflecting the will of a larger representative body. PUNISHMENT / IMPLICATIONS (if applicable): - If impeached, the official is removed from office and may face disqualification from holding any future office. SOURCE: - Constitution of India, Article 61 (Impeachment of the President) and Article 124 (Impeachment of Supreme Court Judges).
