As long as he has the support of the ruling party and Lok Sabha, the Prime Minister sits in office. The ideal prime ministerial term is five years. He may, however, retire before the end of his tenure or be dismissed if a motion to remove him from office is approved. As per Article 75(3) of the Indian Constitution, the Union Cabinet is collectively accountable to the Lok Sabha. When instructed by the President, the Prime Minister must resign if he is unable to get the majority's support in the Lok Sabha.
