He has been actively involved with Udayan, a home in Kolkata for children of leprosy patients, and has worked for the cause of children affected by leprosy in India for many years (Statement 3 is correct). Thus, only statements 2 and 3 are correct.

– He was inspired by Mother Teresa and actively supports humanitarian causes in India, particularly related to children affected by leprosy.
Steve Waugh’s association with Udayan began during a cricket tour of India in the late 1990s. He continues to support the charity and has helped raise significant funds for it.
