Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: A
Explanation

Operation Sadhbhavana (Goodwill) is a unique civic action programme launched by the Indian Army in Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh to address the aspirations of people affected by terrorism. Statement 1 is correct as the Indian Army undertakes multiple welfare activities, including the operation of seven Army Goodwill Schools (AGS) in remote areas of Ladakh to provide quality education to over 2,200 students [2]. Statement 2 is incorrect because the primary objective of the operation is to win the 'hearts and minds' of the local population by addressing developmental needs, national integration, and women's empowerment, rather than specifically focusing on building harmonious relationships between religious communities [2]. The funds are utilized for infrastructure, healthcare, and skill development to counter the influence of terrorism and foster nation-building [2].
