What was the National Knowledge Commission's recommendation for the minimum gross enrolment ratio to be achieved in higher education by 2015?

A5 percent
B10 percent
C15 percent ✓ Correct
D20 percent
Correct answer: (C) 15 percent
Explanation

The National Knowledge Commission recommended a gross enrolment ratio of at least 15 percent by 2015.

A target of 5 percent would have been far too modest for its ambitions.

A figure of 10 percent falls short of the ratio it actually proposed.

A figure of 20 percent overstates the goal set for that year.

Raising enrolment was tied to expanding the number of universities.

NEP 2020 later set a 50 percent gross enrolment ratio target by 2035.
