Correct answer: D

Concept: In a "which of the following statements is/are incorrect" item, every numbered statement must be checked independently against verified facts first. Only after each statement's truth value is settled does the correct combination option (Only 1 / Only 2 / Both / None) follow -- the option wording itself is never a shortcut to the answer.

Application: Statement 1 says the Government of India selected Haryana for a Bio-Technology Park. Haryana's Industrial and Investment Policy (2011, State Gazette) records this selection, so statement 1 is factually correct -- not incorrect. Statement 2 says the State Government proposed a Pharma Park on the KMP (Kundli-Manesar-Palwal) Expressway. The same policy earmarks about 1,000 acres for a dedicated Pharma Park along that expressway corridor, corroborated by contemporaneous press coverage, so statement 2 is also factually correct -- not incorrect. Since neither statement is incorrect, the correct choice is "None of the above."

Cross-check: "Only 1" and "Only 2" would each require exactly one statement to be false, but both check out as true. "Both 1 and 2" would require both to be false, the opposite of the verified record. "Question not attempted" does not apply to an evaluated item. So "None of the above" is the only combination consistent with both verified facts.
