{'vanbandhu kalyan yojana': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'scheduled tribes': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'tribals': [0, 2, 1, 7], 'development': [11, 4, 15, 44], 'union territory': [4, 0, 0, 1], 'scheme': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'human development indices': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'various facilities': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'regard': [0, 0, 1, 8]}

The correct answer is option 2, which states that statement 2 is the only true statement regarding the newly launched Vanbandhu Kalyan Yojana.

Statement 1 is false because the scheme does not mention that the Centre will provide 10 crores each for every State and Union Territory for the development of facilities for the tribals. The scheme focuses on bridging infrastructural gaps and gaps in human development indices between Scheduled Tribes and other social groups, but does not specify any financial support from the Centre.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 2, which indicates that only statement 2 is true.

In conclusion, it is important to carefully analyze and understand the statements provided in the question to identify the correct answer.
