Statement 1: Dafla Hills are indeed located on the boundary of western Arunachal Pradesh and Assam, and they are inhabited by the Nyishi tribe (previously referred to as the Dafla). However, the term "Daphla" is now considered outdated and less commonly used. While the geographic and cultural details of the hills are accurate, the name "Daphla tribe" is not commonly used. Statement 2: The Mishmi Hills are in Arunachal Pradesh, India's northeasternmost state. This is correct. Statement 3: The Abor Hills are located in Arunachal Pradesh near the border with Assam and not Myanmar. This statement is partially incorrect because the location near Myanmar is not accurate. The Abor Hills are in the central-western part of Arunachal Pradesh, not close to the Myanmar border. Statements 1 and 3 are not correct, while Statement 2 is correct
