B. Adjournment Motion✓ Correct Answer
C. No-Confidence Motion
D. Cut Motion

💡 Solution & Explanation

An Adjournment Motion aims to draw the attention of the House to a recent matter of urgent public importance and requires the support of at least 50 members to be admitted. It interrupts the normal business of the house and is considered an extraordinary instrument. A No-Confidence Motion also requires 50 members for admission but expresses a lack of confidence in the entire Council of Ministers. Cut motions are moved during financial business to reduce budgetary allocations.
