With reference to the wetlands of India, consider the following statements: 1. The country's total geographical area under the category of wetlands is recorded more in. Gujarat as compared to other States. 2. In India, the total geographical area of coastal wetlands is larger than that of inland wetlands. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

1. Statement 1 is correct. According to the National Wetland Atlas published by the Space Applications Centre (ISRO) in 2011 (which would be the relevant data source for a 2012 question), Gujarat had the largest total geographical area under wetlands among all Indian States. This was largely due to its extensive coastline and vast inter-tidal mudflats. 2. Statement 2 is incorrect. The same National Wetland Atlas (2011) indicated that the total geographical area of inland wetlands (both natural and man-made) in India was significantly larger than that of coastal wetlands. Coastal wetlands accounted for approximately 27% of the total wetland area, while inland wetlands accounted for about 73%.
