[...] Since the primary object of this report is to place a practicable plan of post-war development before the Reconstruction Committee of the Viceroy's Executive Council which will hardly have the time or the desire to concern itself with matters of educational method or technique only such reference will be made to the contents of these reports as may be necessary to elucidate the general principle [...] The object of this report is to fix that datum line subject of course to the proviso that it will require modification in the light of the conditions obtaining in India in the years to come.
