The correct answer is option 1: 1 only.

Statement 1 is correct. The Nirmal Bharat Abhiyan, a sanitation program in India, has been restructured and renamed as the Swachh Bharat Mission. This mission was launched in 2014 with the aim of making India an open defecation-free country and achieving universal sanitation coverage.

Statement 2 is incorrect. The Swachh Bharat Mission does not have two sub-Missions for Union Territories and States. The mission is a nationwide initiative that focuses on improving sanitation and hygiene practices across the country, regardless of the geographical division.

Therefore, only statement 1 is correct.
