Explanation:

Hunter Commission: In 1882, the Government appointed a commission under the chairmanship of W.W. Hunter to review the progress of education in the country since the Despatch of 1854. The Hunter Commission mostly confined its recommendations to primary and secondary education.

Raleigh Commission: In 1902, Raleigh Commission was set up to go into the conditions and prospects of universities in India and to suggest measures for improvement in their constitution and working. Based on its recommendations, the Indian Universities Act was passed in 1904.

Peel Commission was constituted, after 1857, to study and analyse the future composition of the Indian Army.

Butler Committee (1927) was set up to examine the nature of the relationship between the princely states and the government.
