The most plausible option is A) 1 and 2 only.
Bharat Parv is an annual event organized by the Government of India, primarily by the Ministry of Tourism, to celebrate India’s Republic Day. It is typically held from January 26th to 31st near India Gate, Delhi. Therefore, Statement 1 (Republic Day 2024) is a direct and well-established association. While a direct, prominent link between Bharat Parv and the National Film Festival (a separate event, usually the awards ceremony held later in the year) or Cannes Film Festival (an international event) is not widely publicized, option A implies a connection between Bharat Parv and Statement 2 as well. Given the options provided, and the certainty of Statement 1, Option A is the most likely intended answer, assuming there was some element of showcasing Indian cinema or related activities within Bharat Parv 2024 that the question setter considered a link to ‘National Film Festival’. Statement 3 (Cannes Film Festival) is unrelated to Bharat Parv.
Bharat Parv aims to showcase the diversity of India through cultural performances, handicrafts, food festivals, and highlighting the Republic Day tableaux. The event is open to the public and serves as a significant platform for promoting domestic tourism and national integration. The link to the National Film Festival (Statement 2) is not readily apparent from general reports and might refer to a specific, perhaps minor, inclusion of film-related content or promotion within the broader cultural showcase, or the question might have an ambiguity.
