Explanation:

The manner of operation of the District Mineral Foundation (DMF) does not come under the jurisdiction of the Union Government. Instead, DMFs are established at the district level, and their operations are overseen by the respective state governments.

The Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Amendment Act 2015 indeed mandates that every state should constitute a District Mineral Foundation (DMF) in every district affected by mining-related operations. The DMF aims to work for the interest and benefit of persons and areas affected by mining-related operations.

Therefore, statement 2 is correct, but statement 1 is incorrect
