HC Deb 27 November 1922 vol 159 cc318-9W
Sir C. YATE

asked the Under-Secretary of State for India what steps are being taken to improve the standard of the degrees given by Calcutta and other Indian universities; and whether, failing improvement, orders will be given for the discontinuance of the Government grant?

Earl WINTERTON

The hon. and gallant Member will find general information on the subject in the Annual Report on Indian Education, a copy of which I shall be happy to send to him if desired. I am not in a position to supply more detailed information. The matter is one for which the Ministers in charge of education in the several provinces and the Provincial Legislatures are now responsible.
