Explanation:

Statement 1 is incorrect. As per the Right to Education (RTE) Act, the minimum qualification for teachers is determined by the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE) and not by the State Council of Teacher Education.

Statement 2 is correct. The RTE Act requires candidates to pass a Teacher Eligibility Test (TET) conducted in accordance with the guidelines of the NCTE for teaching primary classes.

Statement 3 is incorrect. The governance of teacher education institutions in India is not solely under the control of the State Governments. It involves a diverse range of authorities, including central government bodies, universities, autonomous organizations, and private entities. Therefore, it is not accurate to state that more than 90% of teacher education institutions in India are directly under the State Governments.
