keywords: 

{'puthukkuli shawls': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'craft heritage': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'maharashtra': [1, 0, 0, 1], 'karnataka': [5, 0, 6, 5], 'tamil nadu': [3, 0, 1, 1], 'uppada jamdani saris': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'sujni': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'region': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

The question asks to identify the correct craft heritage from a specific region.

Option 1 states that Puthukkuli shawls belong to Tamil Nadu. This is true as Puthukkuli shawls are a distinctive craft tradition from the region of Tamil Nadu, thus making option 1 correct.

Option 2 suggests that Sujni embroidery belongs to Maharashtra. Sujni embroidery is, however, a traditional craft from Bihar, not Maharashtra, making this pairing incorrect.

Option 3 proposes that Uppada Jamdani Saris are from Karnataka. The fact is that these saris are native to Uppada in Andhra Pradesh, not Karnataka, making option 3 inaccurate.

Option 4 suggests that both Sujni embroidery and Uppada Jamdani Saris relate to Maharashtra and Karnataka respectively. As explained earlier, both these associations are incorrect.

So, only the first pair (Puthukkuli shawls of Tamil Nadu) is correctly matched, confirming that the correct answer is option 1 "1 only".
