{'satavahanas': [0, 1, 0, 2], 'sudarshana lake': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'deccan': [2, 0, 1, 1], 'western india': [0, 0, 0, 1]}

The correct answer is option 1 - 1 only.

Statement 1 is correct. The Satavahanas did indeed rule over parts of western India and the Deccan. The Satavahana dynasty was one of the earliest South Indian dynasties, and they had their capital in present-day Maharashtra. They had a vast empire that extended from the Arabian Sea coast to the eastern parts of India.

However, statement 2 is not correct. There is no historical evidence or mention of the Satavahanas repairing and rebuilding Sudarshana Lake. Sudarshana Lake was a major water source in ancient India, but there is no known connection between the Satavahanas and the repair or reconstruction of this lake.

Therefore, the correct answer is option 1 - 1 only.
