Thomas Babington Macaulay’s Minute strongly advocated for the introduction of English education in India, focusing on Western subjects, rather than supporting traditional Oriental learning. His views were accepted by Lord William Bentinck, the Governor-General, leading to a resolution in March 1835 that made English the medium of instruction for higher education and allocated funds for promoting Western literature and science.
