Explanation

Parliament has a direct constitutional role in the removal of Judges of the Supreme Court and High Courts, as well as the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) of India, as they can only be removed by the President following an address passed by both Houses of Parliament with a special majority. On the other hand, the Chairman of the UPSC is removed by the President of India on the grounds of misbehaviour after an inquiry conducted by the Supreme Court (under Article 317), without any requirement for a parliamentary resolution.
