    Explanation:
    • Defection means when the legislator leaves the political party from which he/she was elected and joins the other party.
    • To curb the evil of defection, the Anti-Defection Law was passed in 1985 through the 52nd Amendment to the Constitution.
    • It added the Tenth Schedule to the Indian Constitution i.e.A–102(2) and A–191(2).
    • It deals with all 3 types of members - Members elected from party’s ticket, Independent MLA’s and Nominated members.
    • Hence only statement 1 is correct.
