Explanation:

Article 179, which deals with the “vacation and resignation of, and removal from, the offices of Speaker and Deputy Speaker”.The removal of the Speaker through a resolution of the Assembly requires 14 day’s notice, when a motion for his removal is discussed in the Assembly, the Speaker does not preside over the Assembly. It may be removed from his office by a resolution of the Assembly passed by a majority of all the then members of the Assembly. Hence option 3rd is correct.
