This question was previously asked in
UGC NET 2019 Home Science Question Paper (04-Dec-2019) (Shift 2)
The correct answer is

Kothari Commission

The question asks about a specific committee/commission in post-independence India whose report deals with all levels of education in India. Let's analyze each option to find the correct answer:

  1. Sargeant Commission: This commission was established during British rule in India in 1944. It is known for its recommendations on educational reform but is not a post-independence commission.
  2. Hartog Committee: Formed in 1929, this committee focused primarily on the quality and organization of education rather than on all levels. It is thus not relevant for post-independence India.
  3. Kothari Commission: Formally known as the Indian Education Commission (1964-66), this was a significant step towards reforming Indian education post-independence. It addressed all levels of education and formulated strategies to align educational objectives with economic and national goals. This makes it the most pertinent option for the question.
  4. Radhakrishnan Commission: Established in 1948, this commission focused on university education, not the entire education system. It contributed significantly to higher education reforms but did not address all levels.

Based on this analysis, the correct answer is the Kothari Commission, as it is well known for its comprehensive approach to addressing issues and reforms across all levels of education in post-independence India.

Therefore, the correct choice is:

Kothari Commission
