**Statement I:** The PLFS is conducted by the **NSO (National Statistical Office)**, not the Labour Bureau. So this is **incorrect**. **Statement II:** Data from household surveys has shown trends of increasing unemployment and declining workforce participation, indicating a worsening employment situation. This is **correct**. **Statement III:** The Employment-Unemployment Surveys (EUS) were conducted by the NSSO roughly every **five years**, not every two years. So this is **incorrect**. Since only Statement II is true, Option 2 is the **correct** answer.
