Question

What were the reasons behind the failure of Nation Council of Education?

Answer 1

The National Council of Education (or NCE) was an organisation founded by Indian nationalists in Bengal in 1906 to promote science and technology as part of a swadeshiindustrialisation movement. It established theBengal National College and Bengal Institutewhich would later merge to form Jadavpur University. Institutions functioning under the Council were considered to be hotbeds of swadeshi activities and the government banned nationalistic activities such as the singing of patriotic songs.
