Q. With reference to the Adjournment Motion in the Indian Parliament, consider the following statements:
  1. The primary objective of the adjournment motion is to draw attention of the House to a matter of urgent public importance.
  2. Adjournment motion can be used only in Lok Sabha and not in Rajya Sabha.
Select the correct option from the codes given below:

Answer: Both 1 & 2
Notes: Adjournment Motion draws House attention to urgent public importance and requires support of 50 members. It is used exclusively in Lok Sabha to censure government actions by disrupting normal house business. Rajya Sabha cannot consider adjournment motions; instead, it uses the "Calling Attention" procedure which has no censure provision. Both statements are correct.
