Statements 1 and 2 only are correct.
Under the Mahtari Vandan Yojana, the Government of Chhattisgarh provides direct financial assistance of ₹1,000 per month (₹12,000 annually) to eligible married women residing in the state who are at least 21 years of age as of January 1 of the respective year. Because the scheme is formulated and executed by the Department of Women and Child Development, the statement attributing implementation to the Department of Agriculture is factually incorrect. Therefore, only the first and second statements are correct.
