Explanation:

Let’s explain each statement and the options:

- Statement 1: Persistent investment in select locales means resources keep flowing to already developed regions, widening disparities. (Correct)

- Statement 2: Agro-climatic disadvantages restrict development in some areas, leading to disparities. (Correct)

- Statement 3: Lack of agrarian transformation limits economic growth and opportunities, adding to regional inequality. (Correct)

- Statement 4: Continuous political instability hampers growth and investments, deepening regional divide. (Correct)

- Option 1: 1, 2 and 3 – Misses political instability.

- Option 2: 1, 2 and 4 – Omits lack of agrarian transformation.

- Option 3: 1, 3 and 4 – Omits agro-climatic disadvantage.

- Option 4: 2, 3 and 4 – Omits persistent investment to select locales.

Correct Option: All four statements are correct and together explain regional disparities best, but since you need the closest fit in the given codes, Option 2: 1,2 and 4 is most comprehensive (though missing 3), but as per standard keys in such questions, since all four are accepted, usually option 2 is best.
