The Central Advisory Board of Education (CABE) is India's oldest and highest advisory body on education, established in 1920 to advise central and state governments. It was dissolved briefly but revived in 1935 and advised on the National Policy on Education of 1992. After being dissolved again in 1994, CABE was reconstituted in 2004. Composed of central ministers, state representatives, parliament members, and nominated experts, CABE reviews education progress and advises on policies regarding issues like universal education, curriculum, and higher education financing. It aims to facilitate coordination between government and non-government groups to further educational development.
