The correct answer is option 4: Wood`s Despatch. Wood`s Despatch, also known as the Despatch on Education in India, was a report submitted by Charles Wood in 1854. It played a significant role in the establishment of Calcutta University. Wood`s Despatch recommended the creation of a university in Calcutta, along with the establishment of universities in Bombay and Madras, to provide higher education in India. This report laid the foundation for the modern education system in India and led to the establishment of Calcutta University in 1857. The other options listed are not directly responsible for the creation of Calcutta University.
