The correct option is B 1 only
Explanation:
Statement 1 is correct: Doklam is a narrow plateau lying in the tri-junction of India, China, and Bhutan. It is surrounded by the Chumbi Valley of Tibet, Bhutan’s Ha Valley, and Sikkim.
Statement 2 is incorrect: Doklam is part of Bhutanese territory.
Statement 3 is incorrect: China believes Doklam to be disputed territory between Bhutan and China. It, therefore, contests the presence of the Indian army in the region as a transgression.
