When did T.B. Macaulay present his ‘minutes on education’ advocating English education in India?

Correct option is B

T.B. Macaulay presented his Minute on Education on February 2, 1835. In the minute, Macaulay argued that the British government should promote the teaching of English in India. He believed that English would give Indians access to Western knowledge and culture, which would help them to modernize and progress.
Macaulay's minute was influential, and it led to a major shift in British education policy in India. English became the language of instruction in government schools, and it also became the language of administration and higher education. The introduction of English education had a profound impact on Indian society. It created a new class of English-educated Indians who played a leading role in the Indian independence movement. However, it also led to the decline of traditional Indian languages and cultures. The debate over the legacy of Macaulay's minute continues today. Some argue that it was a positive development that helped India to modernize and progress. Others argue that it was a negative development that led to the erosion of Indian culture.
