    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is very clear that this Committee was not motivated by any ill-will or benevolence. We just strictly did our job. I would like the House to note the language in Article 181 (a) of the Constitution. This is because the Article just says that a Governor may be removed from office of gross violation of the Constitution or any other law. So, the language is “may” and not “shall”. So, it is not mandatory. Even if the Governor is found to have grossly violated the Constitution, the Senate still has discretion, because of the language used under Article 181. So, the hands of the Senate are not tied by the language of this article."
