We have a number of doors inside the house that are covered with Polyurethane. I would like to paint them. How should I proceed? Do I have to first remove the Polyurethane? If yes - how?

No you do not have to remove the urethane.
You will neeed to sand with a fine sanding sponge and wash with ammonia and water to make sure they are clean and the primer has something to bit to. Then you will need to prime them with an oil based primer and you don't need to use a fast dry type unless you need to finish paint them in a couple of hours. The finish paint should be an acrylic semi-gloss or gloss depending on your preference and plan on two coats of finish paint.
