In December 2018, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced the renaming of three prominent islands in the Andaman and Nicobar archipelago to honor Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose [3]. According to official records, Ross Island was renamed Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Dweep, Neil Island was renamed Shaheed Dweep, and Havelock Island was renamed Swaraj Dweep [2]. Comparing these to the provided pairs: Pair 1 is incorrect because Ross Island became Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Dweep, not Shaheed Dweep [1]. Pair 2 is incorrect because Neil Island became Shaheed Dweep, not Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose Dweep [3]. Pair 3 is correctly matched as Havelock Island was indeed renamed Swaraj Dweep [1]. These changes were made to commemorate the 75th anniversary of Netaji hoisting the national flag at Port Blair in 1943. Therefore, only statement 3 is correct.
