What is an Adjournment Motion?

Solution

The Adjournment Motion is introduced by the members of Parliament in Rajya Sabha or in the Lok Sabha or in both the Houses as the case may be. The objective of introducing the adjournment motion is to invite the attention of the members towards the serious problem or even by suspending the routine work of the house. The Council of Ministers mostly opposes the introduction of this type of resolution. Because it can expose the policies of the government. Moreover, the opposition also gets the chance to criticise the government.
