Explanation:

All three statements are incorrect.

East-West Corridor under the Golden Quadrilateral Project connects Silchar in Assam to Porbandar in Gujarat, not Dibrugarh to Surat.

Trilateral Highway (India-Myanmar-Thailand Trilateral Highway) is meant to connect Moreh in Manipur, India, with Mae Sot in Thailand, via Myanmar. It doesn't extend up to Chiang Mai.

Bangladesh-China-India-Myanmar Economic Corridor (BCIM) aims to connect Kolkata in West Bengal, India with Kunming in Yunnan province of China. It doesn't start from Varanasi.

Hence, none of the statements is correct.
