Explanation

Statement 1 — Correct: DHRUV64 is the third chip fabricated under the Digital India RISC-V (DIR-V) Programme, after THEJAS32 and THEJAS64. The programme aims to develop a complete range of indigenous RISC-V-based microprocessors, reducing dependence on imported chips and foreign intellectual property.

Statement 2 — Correct: Developed by C-DAC under the MeitY, DHRUV64 is India’s first homegrown 1.0 GHz, 64-bit dual-core microprocessor. It uses the open-source RISC-V architecture, helping reduce proprietary licensing dependence and strengthen technological self-reliance.

Therefore, both Statements 1 and 2 are correct.
