Answer 2

Answer:

Sir Charles Wood's Despatch of 1857 created the Universities of Calcutta, Bombay, and Madras.

The correct answer is B. Dalhousie.

Explanation:

Sir Charles Wood's dispatch resulted in the establishment of colleges and universities in Calcutta, Bombay, and Madras.

• Sir Charles Wood wrote a telegram to Lord Dalhousie in 1854, in which he advised that elementary schools adopt vernacular languages, high schools take Anglo vernacular languages, and English be the medium of instruction.
• He advocated for female education and wanted the English language to be encouraged so that people could speak and understand it; this is known as the Woods Despatch.
• Calcutta, Bombay, and Madras all established universities in 1857.
• He had a significant impact on the spread of education in India. As a result, Wood's Despatch is also known as the 'Magna Carta,' because he established English schooling and promoted western education in India.
