The correct answer is option 1, stating that all three statements are correct.

Statement I says that Petronet LNG Ltd is setting up another LNG terminal at Mangalore. Petronet LNG Limited, one of the fastest growing companies in the Indian energy sector, has set up the country`s first LNG receiving and regasification terminal. If the company is indeed setting up an additional terminal in Mangalore, this statement is correct.

Statement III says that the Narwapahar Mine is operated by the Uranium Corporation of India Limited.
