CBoth 1 and 2
DNeither 1 nor 2

Explanation

Make in India was launched on 25 September 2014 (not 2018) to transform India into a global manufacturing and design hub. ‘Foster innovation’ is the stated thrust of Startup India (launched January 2016), a separate initiative. Both statements about Make in India are therefore incorrect.
