How does clause (1) relate to a "reference" made to the Supreme Court by the President?
Clause (1) states that the Chairman or any other member of a Public Service Commission can only be removed from his office by order of the President on the ground of misbehaviour after the Supreme Court, on reference being made to it by the President, has reported that the concerned person ought to be removed on any such ground. Therefore, this clause relates to the process of removal of a member of a Public Service Commission where a "reference" is made to the Supreme Court by the President for an inquiry into the alleged misbehavior of the concerned member before any decision regarding his/her removal from office can be taken.
