HEY THERE!!!
What is Magna Carta?
Magna Carta in England, in 1215, was supposed to be the first step of a Democratic government in England.
The Wood's Despatch is known as the Magna Carta of Indian Education.
It was the Act of 1854, which was passed by the British.The despatch was presented by the Secretary of State, Sir Charles Wood, to the directors of the East India Company (as there was Company's rule at that time). As a result, Education departments were established in every province of India. The Universities at Bombay, Calcutta (now Kolkata) and Madras (now Chennai) were opened for higher education. So, it was the Magna Carta of India.
Again, the men with moderate views (Gopal Krishna Gokhale, Pherozshah Mehta, Surendranath Banerjee) considered that the August Declaration of 1917 was also the Magna Carta of India.
