•It should not relate to the expenditure charged on the Consolidated Fund of India.
•It should not relate to a matter that is under adjudication by a court.
•It should not raise a question of privilege.
•It should not revive discussion on a matter on which a decision has been taken in the same session.
•It should not relate to a trivial matter.
