The correct answer is (C). Both statements are correct regarding ‘Operation Sadbhavana’ in Ladakh.

Operation Sadbhavana is an Indian Army initiative primarily aimed at winning the ‘hearts and minds’ of the local population in regions like Ladakh (part of the erstwhile J&K state). Its key activities include welfare projects, infrastructure development, health camps, and educational initiatives like running Army Goodwill Schools.

While statement 1 accurately describes specific welfare activities like running schools, statement 2 reflects the broader goal implied by the name ‘Sadbhavana’ (goodwill/harmony). The overall objective of improving civil-military relations and fostering trust through developmental work contributes to building harmonious relationships among all communities, including religious ones, in the region.
