The correct answer is option 3, which states that statements 1 and 3 are correct. Let`s dissect each option to better understand the answer:

Option 1: This option states that statements 1, 2, and 3 are correct. However, statement 2 is incorrect as Prithvi II missile is not equipped with features of maneuverability to deceive the enemy defence system. Therefore, option 1 is incorrect.

Option 2: This option states that statement 2 is the only correct statement. However, this is incorrect as both statements 1 and 3 are also correct. Therefore, option 2 is incorrect.

Option 3: This option states that statements 1 and 3 are correct. Statement 1 is correct as the DRDO (Defense Research and Development Organization) developed two variants of the Prithvi Missile. Statement 3 is also correct as the induction of the Prithvi Missile does enhance the capability of the Indian Army to attack multiple targets simultaneously. Therefore, option 3 is correct.

Option 4: This option states that statements 1, 2, and 3 are correct. As discussed earlier, statement 2 is incorrect. Therefore, option 4 is incorrect.

In conclusion, the correct answer is
