Explanation:

1 and 3 only. Socio economic and caste census is being conducted the first time in India. It will be undertaken through a comprehensive door to door enumeration across the country to enumerate castes along with socio-economic data. SECC paves the way to identify the households living below the poverty line in rural and urban areas of the country. The following households will have the highest priority for inclusion in the BPL list.

Households without shelter
(b) destitute/living on alms
(c) Manual scavengers
(d) Primitive Tribal Groups
(e) Legally released bonded laborers
You can also apply some reasoning to get the answer. Merely being an SC/ST household does not mean belonging to BPL. There are many wealthy among them too. So, including them in the priority group does not make sense. Hence, eliminating statement 2 gives you the correct answer.
