Explanation:

The newly identified A3i or Clade I/A3i is the second most dominant coronavirus clade in India. A2a is the most dominant. The coronavirus type or clade is a cluster of SARS-CoV-2 viruses that share evolutionary similarities and are grouped together based on characteristic mutations or similarities in parts of their genomes which means it is a taxonomic group of organisms that are classified together on the basis of homologous features that are traced to a common ancestor. Hence only statement 2nd is correct.
