System of rotation in the Indian context
Some additional references - in the indian parliamentary system, the post of the PM is a titular one as s/he is considered 'first among equals'. Thus, as you rightly pointed out, the constitution places no bar on "rotating" the PM / CM, and anyone with a majority support can become the PM / CM anytime. In fact, in coalition politics in India, rotation of the PM / CM post is a common negotiating point. E.g. Shiv Sena talks of CM by rotation, JMM now demands rotational Chief Ministership or A bad case of politics

Would a Member of Parliament be able to successfully challenge her expulsion in the Courts?
The indian judiciary does have limited power to "compel" - if any judicial order is not executed to its satisfaction, it can consider this as Contempt of Courts and use its powers to penalise or punish officials of the Executive. It also can take extraordinary action under it powers of judicial review to even encroach on the domain of the Executive and order it to take specific actions to safeguard fundamental rights or correct constitutional violation.
