Explanation:

Only statement 2nd is correct.

• Statements 1 and 3 are incorrect. While the Union List (Entry 52) pertains to industries that require Union control in the public interest, the Supreme Court ruled that industrial alcohol, despite its industrial applications, remains under the State’s regulatory authority as it falls within the scope of intoxicating substances that impact public health. The Union government does not have exclusive control over industrial alcohol.

• Statement 2 is correct. The State List (Entry 8) grants States the authority to regulate “intoxicating liquor,” which the Supreme Court has extended to include industrial alcohol.

Hence option 1st is correct.
