Solution

The correct option is D Western

In 1841, the General Committee of Public Instruction was abolished and in its place a council of education was established. Landmark in the development of Western education was Wood’s Despatch of 1854. The Despatch categorically states “the education that we desire to see extended in India is that which has for its object the diffusion of the improved arts, science, and philosophy and literature of Europe, in short, of European knowledge.
