The Indian Universities Act of 1904, which increased official control over universities, was introduced based on the recommendations of which commission?
A. Sadler Commission
B. Hunter Commission
C. Raleigh Commission
D. Hartog Committee
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
The Raleigh Commission was appointed in 1902 by Lord Curzon to investigate conditions of universities, which led directly to the passage of the Indian Universities Act of 1904.
The 'States Reorganisation Commission' was appointed in 1953, but which earlier commission in 1948 had recommended reorganisation of states on linguistic lines?
Explanation:
The S. K. Dhar Commission was appointed in June 1948 to examine the feasibility of linguistic provinces but rejected language as the sole criterion. The JVP Committee (Jawaharlal Nehru, Vallabhbhai Patel, Pattabhi Sitaramayya) was formed later. The question might be a bit post-1950 but okay. I'll keep it if relevant to 1950. I'll replace with a more 1948 one.
