The correct answer is option 2 - 2 only. An adjournment motion in the Parliament may involve the failure of the Government of India to perform its duties in accordance with the Constitution. This means that the subject matter of an adjournment motion does not necessarily have to be directly related to the conduct of the Union Government.

An adjournment motion is a parliamentary procedure used to discuss matters of urgent public importance. It allows members of parliament to interrupt the normal business of the house and discuss a specific issue. The purpose of an adjournment motion is to draw the attention of the government to a particular problem or failure and demand immediate action or explanation.

Therefore, while an adjournment motion can be used to address failures of the government, it does not have to be directly related to the conduct of the Union Government. It can be related to any matter of urgent public importance, as long as it is within the scope of the Constitution.
