No doubt education makes a man broad minded, enhance his personality and groom him. This is education which make a man thoughtful. But just well education is not a fix criteria to analize a leader. There are some other qualities which makes him perfect like, he must be honest, hard-working. Sincere, corruption free, who think about people welfare and benefits etc. And most important having strong leadership qualities. There are so many leaders who are well qualified still they are corrupt and its recent example is Mr. A. Raja who is one of the most corrupt leader and involved in multi-crores 2G scam. But its doesn't mean education is secondary thing that there should be a fixed standard of education qualification for politician. We see so many highly qualified IPS, IAS, etc. Who works for these uneducated persons. Though these administrative personnel are highly qualified yet they have to work under the pressure of these uneducated politicians. They even cannot take decisions independently and just become the puppet of these uneducated politicians. This is all because of our unawareness. During the time of elections we give vote to these uneducated, corrupt and biased leaders and became slave of them. So, we need good and honest leader like Mahatma Gandhi, Netaji Subhash Chander Bose etc. And in modern time like Anna ji. Anna ji who is not so qualified yet he is trying to make our country corruption free. Thus, we need a politician who can represent common man and that is possible when our leader would be educated at certain extent and as well as honest and think for welfare of our country.

I accepted all your views, but in my point of view Education is needed for a politician. If we look 30-40 years back education is not played vital role in politics where in now, our country still developing country. If we look at other countries growth is up day by day, in these circumstances if we want compete with those countries first of all we need a power democracy to drive our country. ! This can be possible only through politics with educated minds. Of course, only educated one will have become representative for people. Uneducated mind also have capable for understanding people to serve better than educated. But its work on rural areas only that too its a word when India was in 30 years back. ! Finally I want say is. Our politics are become SHAMELESS. ! Our commitments are become AIMLESS. ! Our arguments are become BASELESS. ! If our politician (educated/uneducated) can change above 3 things we will see bright feature for our country. ! THANK you. !

First of all I want to thank all of you for giving your thoughts. But in my opinion, the education is not only criteria to be a politician. A current example of anna hajare is front of us. He is a man who is just 7th class passed. But he is honest, he thinks about the country's progress. He is fighting for our countrymen just for a good cause and people are supporting him. In his age an educated but irresponsible person simply lives on his pension. If a politician who is highly educated but corrupted, criminal or goon then he would never serve his country well. He will always think about himself.

Hello friends I think this a very good topic to discuss on. Let me have this opportunity to start this topic. I think government should keep a optimum level of education for all the politicians to enter into the politics, reason to this is being a politician they have to responsibility to build the nation and a leader should have a basic knowledge of all the streams over which they are working. Education gives a basic sense of understanding the things and tackle them in a mature manner. So I guess educational qualification is a must to enter into the politics. What do you think?

Politicians are the leaders of our nation. So they should be educated. 1. Education is the base of the development if the leader is educated so he will able to make progress better than an uneducated politician. 2. Educated politician can better understand the condition than the uneducated politician. 3. Educated leader can make better policies for the country. 4. Educated leader can give good solution for the problems. We can see many example of educated politician in our country such as current CM of Bihar state Mr. Nitish Kumar, CM of Gujrat State Mr. Narendra Modi, our former Prime Ministers late Mrs. Indira Gandhi and late Mr. Rajeev Gandhi and many more educated politicians who had contributed a lot for our nation. So the education is very important for politicians.

At the same time, I feel that the kind of education imparted is also very important. We should have value education in our curriculm that will help in our understanding of basic values which will reduce the greed, make us sensitive and responsible.

The problem is, nowadays alot of politicians are too smart in the way that they can stand infront of millions of people and spew out a load of political garbage that consists of mainly false statistics and lies. In other words, they are that smart that they know how to control people subliminally, all they are in the job for is the money and while there at it they are trying to be more liked by saying what they could possibly achieve although they never do. Think about it people, is it fair that they get anything they could ever dream off and all because they claim to care about a society's welfare; we don't and will never know what they are covering up.

In my view, there should be a minimum qualification to enter politics, the politicians are the ones who can act like a "BRAIN" for the country. Even for basic jobs, the companies are checking if the candidate has knowledge and capabilities to perform his responsibilities,but when it comes to a person who represents the country/state/constituency and in a position to plan, take reasonable and intelligent decisions it is mandatory to have educational qualification. I shall add that the basic criteria for candidates to enter ministries and positions of Finance/chemical/IT/Health..... should have knowledge and graduation in specific domain.

Education can't guarantee all these things but a person administrating such a diversely populated country should have some reasonable educational background as education helps in developing a learning attitude in life which helps a person( in this case a politician) to adapt to this fast changing world and serve the society in a more appropriate way.

There are many politicians in our country who have no proper educational background still are in the powerful seat. Well this says it all about our political system. Education is certainly the backbone of anyone who is interested to serve the country and holds the most major job of running the government And because of lack in education corruption is deep rooted in our political system. Its not that ones who are educated are not corrupted but still educational background helps one to speak against corruption. The multi party system is certainly a curse for the democracy which has helped in increasing corruption and inclusion of man who do not have proper educational background. What I feel is that for every political position there should be an INDIAN POLITICAL SERVICE and equivalent STATE POLITICAL SERVICE that will be conducted by UPSC and accordingly politicians will be recruited in parliament or state assembly. Then from the selected ones people should choose there Prime minister or chief minister who would run the govt.

Akbar the greatest and powerful Muslim emperor was an illiterate one I need not to write about his contribution to Indian society but to the world in terms of administration, human values, etc. So there is a difference b/w education and knowledge.

First we shall analyse the responsibilities of a politician. A politician should: 1 Administer his constituency. 2 Do his cabinet duties. 3 Second or oppose bills passed during sessions or should be able to propose bills in parliament. 4 Take decisions over exceptions and issues. To administer his constituency, a politician needs civic sense, which he will get through his experience in working with a political party. To perform his cabinet duties, he should understand what his purview, he should know what is good and bad etc. But to use his voting powers, he should have atleast minimum technical knowledge of various fiscal, labor, corporate, industrial and business laws prevailing in the country. Basic knowledge can be acquired from a structured study. Hence a politician should have educational qualifications. Also we can say that a politician to continue in his post should obtain educational qualifications, if he dont have one. We should understand the importance of education. Educated person can take a wise decision than an uneducated person. When it comes to taking decisions for a country, decision makers should have a good educational background.

No, Its of no use. Because if we look at our national politicians many of them are highly qualified even then there is no difference. They are facing more problems related to scams, black money-hoarding, illegal sexual relationship and many more. If the person has ability to read, understand and have strong leadership qualities along with honesty it is more than enough. As a politician one should not be greedy. Each and every politician must strive hard to be honest throughout his life. Friends if you look at the Educational qualification of "ANNA HAZARE" he studied up to the 7th standard, But the work he has done recently has given jolt to all our highly qualified politicians. So it is not the qualification that matters, it is the commitment that matters. Commitment for corruption free country. Politician means the representative of the people, means he should act according to their will and wish. But our politicians have changed the meaning completely. Even if anyone brings this qualification criteria ahead its of no use again the same politicians will come up or the others with similar attitude and motto. So I completely contradict the statement.

In my view a minimum level of both education and honesty can lead India towards its progress. All the scams, scandals is a shame to look upon. These people are spoiling the nation. Youth of today's nation must come forward and lead this country to its progress. In some ways it is the fault of the people (no offence) who either do not vote or they vote people of their own caste/religion. The illiterate people are the ones who should be educated.

It must be 10th or 12th pass and should be honest. Now a days, many politician are only concern with only money and money and not for developing our country. This is because they are not educated and honest. At last, I want to say that there should be a criteria in education of politician. ZISHAN MOHSIN, B. TECH, CSE-4, INTEGRAL UNIVERSITY.

REally . It s nesserey to be qualified politicion, because we cant hope that a people who doesn't know about word, he can't lead World. But the matter is "what should be level of education"? Many villages are yet such that where no education have reached yet. How we can hope that they will acquire a local citizen as their leader, who can solve their problem in their manner. So I think that The candidate should Pass Metric is enough at current time.

India is developing country, so as I think that becoming next years each and every person should be well educated. Because education is play vital role of the person life who is working for himself and for the country also. Politicians are important pillars of our country. Without any education how can we develop our country compare to other countries. So in the politics, Political members should be educated. If the govt. will decide to the eligibility criteria for joining the politic system than our country will develop very faster.

According to me the education qualification is must for politicians. Because in these days we are watching that how these politicians are fighting in the assembly. Its all happening because they dont know how to behave infront of peoples. Only education is not enough for these people, they should be well trained before entering into the poltics.

As per my thinking all politicians needn't be educated and young. It this happens more than 80% of pliticians would be removed. What happens to the yong when it comes to serving. As they are educated they are better at filling their pockets first. And morever they wont know their society as much as others will know.

I think a politician should have education because he is the one who representates the society he should standup to the countries values, culture and tredation. He should not only have the formal education but also get sensitive towards the emotions of the people, b/c by the end of the day he will be judging the future of many people with diversed thoughts, religion and economic status.

I agree with all of guys. Every one was stressing that a masters degree or a degree with distinction is must for a politician. But the fact is that the one having these degree's are opting for a corporate job. So youth should come forward to take active part in politics. Then we can force some educational constraints on politics. At the same time, there are politicians who are uneducated, but having a good knowledge about all things. So, their wisdom too should be considered. So its not about placing educational constraints on politicians, but we educated people should be able to decide whether a politician can do any good to the society.

I very much agree to the views expressed by so many people that a minimum educational qualification is a must for a politician particularly the social and political knowhow pertaining to our country is needed. Also the most important quality to be possessed by a person to serve in politics is sincerity and honesty. It is so disheartening to hear of the scandals and scams exposed by the media very frequently. It also reflects on the integrity of political people and they are not showing a good direction to the young minds who will be taking care of our country in future. What is the use of so many policies for the benefit of the common man and the youth when the basic character is not molded well. People do not see good model politicians nowadays. There should be immediate steps taken to pass a rule that fixes a minimum education for those who enter politics and proven record of substantial real social service for a period of time. Also it should be seen that favoritism and bribery are completely curbed at all levels and people must realize and follow the rules regarding these aspects.

I think that there should be a certain criteria in education of politician it may be of 10th or 12th or more and leader should be honest for their country because our leader should know what's going on country. Now a days many leader is only consern about only MONEY and MONEY not for DEVLOPMENT of country but are bocoz they are not EDUCATED and DISHONEST both BUT few politicin are doing their work well because they are educated and honest both. At last I want to say, there should be a criteria in education of politician as well as honesty must be also there. Only the education can't do any thing.

Education is very important for a politician. At least he should have completed any degree. India is Improving in all Fields. For example if a gold medallist student is suppose to take a gold medal or a certificate from his/her state Minister who is not educated and in fact he doesn't know the value of that medal then really that student thinks that this is the worst moment in his life. In fact that minister has no level to give that medal to the student. So if the captain [who is leading our country/politicians] is educated then the decision of the captain will be good and powerful which helps in the progress of our country.

As we know that India is an democratic country. India is always a developing country but when we are going to say proudly that my India is developed country. As we all of them aware that politics plays a main role in our country. Yeah definitely education is important to politician as a simple person is proffering education in this technical world. Most of the politicians are entering in to this politics in order to earn money rather than social service. So my kind request to every politician is that please help the people, understand their emotions. So that people starts treating them as God by not considering they are educated are not.

I agree with all those people who assert that educational qualification is necessary for the politicians. Since my childhood I have a very big doubt and till now it is not cleared. I hope someone will help me with this. My doubt is 'Why for a person to become an IAS it is necessary to clear the toughest examination and still he works under an unqualified politician. Why there is no examination to become a politician?'. Well, I know that to rule a country or state only education will not work. Experience and wisdom have a lion's share in governing a country. But unfortunately, our leaders lack these qualities. As our country is still a developing country, we need some young, educated and dynamic leaders to lead us. At the same time experienced politicians should always be there to give advice and support the educated leaders. Minimum qualification for a leader should be any degree with distinction. An educated mother can mould his child into a diamond but an uneducated mother is helpless. Similarly an educated politician will shape up the country.

According to my view there is some educational qualification for Politicians bcoz If politicians know the rules and regulations of Politics, they can rule very good and without any incorrectness. They did good projects for our country. Politicians are main pillars of our nation so they should educationally perfect. Now so many politicians didn't know the rules and regulations and they did what they wish. For development of any country there should be educational politicians minimum of Degree.

Education is necessary because educated politician give a good direction for the development of our country.The minimum education is master degree in a specified field. But this is not enough. Politician are graduated in political science it is not necessary but knowledge of every field of Indian culture is necessary.In India education system is not so good because many crimes are available in our education system also.It is also shown that a IAS who join the politics and destroy the India's democracy. So it is a doldrum situation for describing the educational qualification.First of all we remember our past. Bapu, Sardar patel, Shastri, Tagore, Subhash, Sarojani Naidu, Rajendra prasad and then it is easy to describe the education criteria for politician.

The minimum qualification to become a politician nowadays is he should complete atleast a degree.Nowadays our country is growing in all fields and every citizen is growing in his own way.The countrys development lies in the hand of people in power hence they should be educated to an minimum degree level.Before two decades such politicians without education were there,but now the situation changes so on my view educational qualification is "a must"
