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

Statement 1: The Administrator of Andaman and Nicobar Islands is designated as Lieutenant Governor. This statement is correct. The Administrator of Andaman and Nicobar Islands holds the position of Lieutenant Governor, which is similar to the Governor in other states.

Statement 2: Delhi and Puducherry (Pondicherry) have their own Legislative Assemblies and High Courts. This statement is incorrect. While Delhi has its own Legislative Assembly and High Court, Puducherry does not have its own High Court. Puducherry shares its High Court with the state of Tamil Nadu.

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