    Explanation:

    India is not a signatory to the 1951 Refugee Status Convention. India is also not a signatory to the 1967 Refugee Status Protocol. 

    • 1951 Refugee Status Convention is also called as the Geneva Convention of 28 July 1951. 
    • It is a United Nations Multilateral Treaty that defines refugees and the rights of these refugees who are granted asylum and the responsibilities of the nations that grants asylum to them.  
    • India does not have a national refugee protection framework. 

    Hence only statement 1st is correct.
