A Correct answer
Explanation

Pradhan Mantri Adarsh Gram Yojana (PMAGY) focuses on developing villages with significant SC/ST population (statement 1 is correct). However, statements 2 and 3 are incorrect - the scheme originally targeted around 44,000 villages (not 70,000), and the fund allocation mentioned does not match official figures. PMAGY aims to bridge gaps in infrastructure and basic amenities in these villages.
