Chairman shall vacate his office if he ceases to be a member of the council. (Correct)

According to Article 104 of the Indian Constitution, the Chairman of the Legislative Council (Vidhan Parishad) shall vacate his office if he ceases to be a member of the council.

A resolution of his removal can be initiated in both the houses of the state legislature. (Incorrect)

The removal of the Chairman of the Legislative Council is typically initiated within the council itself and not in both houses of the state legislature.
