Correct option is B
Explanation:
1. Statement A is incorrect. The Anti-Defection Law, as per the Tenth Schedule of the Indian Constitution, does not apply to the Speaker if they decide to quit their own party. This is because, under the law, the Speaker enjoys a unique status and is allowed to remain impartial by not being subject to the law when deciding cases of defection.
2. Statement B is correct. The Speaker cannot preside over the House while a resolution for their removal from office is under consideration. This is mandated to ensure impartiality and fairness in the proceedings of the resolution.
3. Statement C is correct. The Speaker can vote in the House on matters, including their removal from office. However, this voting occurs only when there is a tie. The Speaker does not participate in the initial vote but has a casting vote in the event of a tie .
