The correct statement is option 1, which is "The local time of Itanagar (Arunachal Pradesh) is about two hours ahead than Dwarka (Gujarat)."

Option 2 states that "The local time at Chennai (Tamil Nadu) and Lucknow (Uttar Pradesh) is almost the same." This statement is incorrect because Chennai is in the Eastern Time Zone, while Lucknow is in the Indian Standard Time Zone, which is one hour ahead. So, the local time at Chennai is one hour behind Lucknow.

Option 3 states that "The local time of Mumbai (Maharashtra) is one hour ahead than Kolkata (West Bengal)." This statement is incorrect because Mumbai and Kolkata are both in the Indian Standard Time Zone, so their local times are the same.

Therefore, the only correct statement is option 1.
