In 1902, in a telegram to Hamilton, who among the following proposed to appoint an Indian Universities Commission with six permanent members?

AS. H. Wood
BA. Abbott
CLord Curzon ✓ Correct
DLord Macaulay
Correct answer: (C) Lord Curzon
Explanation

The 1902 telegram to Hamilton proposing an Indian Universities Commission with six permanent members came from Lord Curzon.

Curzon, as Viceroy, drove the review that led to the Indian Universities Act of 1904.

S. H. Wood was linked to later education reports, not this 1902 proposal.

A. Abbott was associated with vocational education surveys of the 1930s.

Lord Macaulay belongs to the 1830s English-education debate, far earlier than this telegram.

The resulting commission's work greatly increased government control over universities.
