    \nStatements 1 and 2 are correct, while Statement 3 is not entirely accurate as the *main* occupation.
    \n<\/section>\n
    \nLakshadweep is an archipelago composed primarily of coral atolls, reefs, and submerged banks (Statement 1). It is indeed the smallest Union Territory of India by geographical area, covering just 32 square kilometers (Statement 2).
    \n<\/section>\n
    \nWhile tourism is an important and growing sector in Lakshadweep, the traditional and primary occupations of the majority of the local population are fishing and coconut cultivation. Stating tourism as the *main* occupation might be an oversimplification or exaggeration compared to these traditional livelihoods. Therefore, considering the phrasing, statement 3 is less accurate than 1 and 2.
