Art.61 of the Constition lays down the procedure for the impeachment of the President.The impeachment charge against him may be initiated by either House of Parliament.In America(u/Art.11 Sec.4 of the American Constitution)the power to initiate the impeachment proceedings lies with the Lower House.

The allegation specific must raise at any of the houses. Notice with 1/3 of the members is a must.For the notice there must be 2/3 mjority of the total of the house.
It must be enquired by the other sabha.The president can in person or represnt hin=mself in the enquiry. The same sabha can put the matter on votes. 2/3 is necessary for a majority.
