The National Education Commission (1964–1966), also known as the Kothari Commission, was an ad hoc committee established by the Government of India with the objectives of reviewing all facets of the Indian educational system, developing a common pattern of academic achievement, and providing recommendations for rules and policies to advance education in India. Under the leadership of Daulat Singh Kothari, who was also the chairman of the University Grants Commission at the time, it was established on July 14th, 1964.
