Correct answer: C
CONCEPT
In a matching question on education commissions, distinguish the authority or Viceroy associated with an initiative from the scholar who chaired or authored the related commission or policy document. The same person may appear as a chairman, while the corresponding authority belongs in the other list.
APPLICATION
Lord Ripon appointed the Indian Education Commission of 1882 under W. W. Hunter; therefore A pairs with III.
Lord Curzon appointed the Indian Universities Commission of 1902, chaired by T. Raleigh; therefore B pairs with IV.
Under Governor-General William Bentinck, Thomas Babington Macaulay prepared the Minute on Education in 1835; therefore C pairs with II.
The Government of India appointed the University Education Commission in 1948 under the chairmanship of Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan; therefore D pairs with I.
CROSS-CHECK
The dates also separate the four associations: 1882 (Ripon–Hunter), 1902 (Curzon–Raleigh), 1835 (Bentinck–Macaulay), and 1948 (Government of India–Radhakrishnan). Each Roman numeral is used exactly once.
Hence the matching is A-III, B-IV, C-II, D-I.
