DKothari Commission
Correct answer: (C) Radhakrishnan Commission
Explanation
The University Grants Commission was set up on the recommendation of the Radhakrishnan Commission, the University Education Commission of 1948 to 1949.
The Mudaliar Commission dealt with secondary education, not the founding of the UGC.
The Sargent Commission's 1944 plan predated and did not create the UGC.
The Kothari Commission came later, in 1964 to 1966.
The UGC was formally established by an Act of Parliament in 1956.
It coordinates and maintains standards of university education and disburses grants.
