The correct answer is option 1, which states that only statement 1 is correct.

Statement 1 states that Sahayog Kaijin is a joint exercise between the Coast Guards of India and Japan. This is true.

It provides an opportunity for both countries to share best practices, conduct training exercises, and strengthen their capabilities in maritime search and rescue, maritime law enforcement, and maritime pollution response.

In conclusion, only statement 1 is correct, and statement 2 is incorrect.
