"content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I congratulate the petitioner for bringing this issue before the Senate. I agree with many of my colleagues in what they said that this is a very unique Petition. When you read Article 148 on Election and Swearing in of the Deputy President, for example, it is mandatory that anybody who wants to become the President of the Republic is to nominate his running mate. The swearing-in of the President and the Deputy is done in the same day. That is why it is called the Presidency. Looking at the design and the architecture of this Constitution, particularly the provisions of Article 144 and 145 is on removal of President on grounds on incapacity shall apply with the necessary modifications to the removal of the Deputy President. However, the design of this Constitution did not envisage a situation where a Deputy President and a President shall be in office and do not see eye to eye as it is happening now. It is silent on what happens in such a situation."
