The statement "These are the most widespread forests in India" is correct. Tropical deciduous forests indeed cover a significant portion of India's land area and are one of the most widespread forest types in the country.

However, the statement "Kail and Neem trees are the main species of these forests" is incorrect. Kail and Neem trees are not the main species of tropical deciduous forests in India. Instead, species like Sal, Teak, Bamboo, and various other hardwood species are more commonly found in these forests.

Therefore, only statement 1 is correct
