Statement I is true as the
Radhakrishnan Commission indeed recommended
standardizing university teaching in India. The Commission emphasized the need to improve and regularize the quality of higher education by creating uniform standards for curricula, teaching methods, and faculty qualifications across Indian universities.
Statement II, however, is false. While the Radhakrishnan Commission made several recommendations to reform university education, including improving examination systems, it did not specifically propose the establishment of an
All India University Examination Board. This particular recommendation is not found in the report, though the Commission did stress reforms in evaluation and examinations at the university level.
