Concept

A commission recommendation is identified by matching a statement to the policy direction explicitly supported in the commission's report, not merely by linking it to the broad subject of higher education.

For a combination question, test every statement separately and retain only the combination in which all included statements are supported and all excluded statements are unsupported.

Application

Apply that test to the five statements:

• Setting up rural universities is supported: the commission proposed rural universities modeled on institutions serving rural and agricultural life.

• Developing research in agriculture, commerce, law, science, and technology is supported: the report devoted recommendations to strengthening these professional and research fields.

• Student welfare is supported: the report treated students' activities and welfare as a distinct area for university reform.

• Transferring existing urban universities to rural areas is not the recommendation; the proposal was to establish rural universities.

• Making English the medium at every level is not the recommendation; the commission supported developing Indian and regional languages for instruction while retaining English for access to wider scholarship.

Cross-check and contrast

• A, B only includes the urban-transfer claim and omits research and student welfare.

• B, C, D only substitutes the all-level English-medium claim for student welfare.

• C, D, E only omits rural universities and includes the all-level English-medium claim.

• B, C, E only contains the three supported recommendations without either unsupported claim.

Therefore, the supported set is B, C, E only.
