Explanation:

Recently, a new category of awards titled ‘Prerak Dauur Samman’ has been announced as part of Swachh Survekshan 2021.

The Prerak Dauur Samman has a total of five additional subcategories namely, Divya (Platinum), Anupam (Gold), Ujjwal (Silver), Udit (Bronze) and Aarohi (Aspiring).
In Swachh Survekshan 2020, cities are evaluated on the criteria of ‘population category’ but for 2021, they will be categorised on the basis of six select indicator wise performance criteria.

These are namely: Segregation of waste into Wet, Dry and Hazard categories; Processing capacity against wet waste generated; Processing and recycling of wet and dry waste; Construction and Demolition waste processing; Percentage of waste going to landfills and Sanitation status of cities.

Hence option 1st is correct.
