Which of the following statements about DHRUV64 is/are correct?
1. It is the third chip fabricated under the DIR-V Programme with an overall aim to enable the creation of microprocessors for India.
2. It is India’s first homegrown 1·0 GHz, 64-bit dual-core microprocessor.
Select the answer using the code given below:

Both statements are correct.

• Statement 1 is correct: DHRUV64 is the third microprocessor fabricated under the Digital India RISC-V (DIR-V) Programme, succeeding the earlier THEJAS32 and THEJAS64 chips. The DIR-V initiative, driven by the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY), aims to build a robust indigenous microprocessor ecosystem to reduce India's reliance on imported silicon and achieve self-reliance (Aatmanirbhar Bharat) in semiconductor design.
• Statement 2 is correct: DHRUV64 is India’s first homegrown 1.0 GHz, 64-bit dual-core microprocessor. Developed by the Centre for Development of Advanced Computing (C-DAC), it is based on the open-source RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). The chip is designed to support strategic and commercial applications, including 5G telecom infrastructure, industrial automation, and defence systems, by offering secure, royalty-free computing capabilities.
