Explanation
SIMBEX-19, the 26th Singapore–India Maritime Bilateral Exercise held in the South China Sea in May 2019, featured the Indian Navy's guided-missile destroyer INS Kolkata and fleet tanker INS Shakti, alongside Republic of Singapore Navy ships. INS Vikrant, India's first indigenous aircraft carrier, was still under construction at Kochi in 2019 and took no part. So statements 1 and 2 are correct and statement 3 is incorrect.
