Educational qualification for Politicians

Hello everyone,

In my opinion, education is the most important part of our life without education we not survive in society But I'm sorry to tell you our many m. L. A and m. P are not educated it's very bad for us because they run our country and their education are most important. Like other countries there all politicians are educated but our politician is don't know about our history, politics, economy and other than they don't know about our constitution and many politicians do much crime so our country needs educated politics.

Thanks.

In my opinion, Now education is necessary for politicians, if politicians are get educated then change's (moral values, ethics) will certainly appear in our society. Because we people know the difference between educated and non-educated people, moreover change is the law of nature, it will really change the way of thinking of our politicians which is beneficial to a nation.

As per my opinion education level for ministers should be there because education gives a person an intrinsic value even an experimental learning till the school life while doing certain activity we are able to understand what is right and what is wrong the basic level of education should be there not a specialised one but minimum as till class 10 or 12 or even graduate irrespective of the field of their education because it is not defined anywhere that a student studying biology can't do law everyone can do everything but minimum education should be there. Do we want our politicians that they can't even write their own name properly what do we expect from them that they will lead the whole country what will be the future how our politicians are then going to communicate with other countries minister when they are not educated?
Then how we can even dream that India will be the best country in the world when the ministers are themselves not educated. Recently supreme court has said that panchayats should have a minimum education level so why not our ministers when they are serving at a very high post of the country. It will be a big question that is we following the rule of law?

Is it justified at the present generation highly educated people are fighting for their livelihood n ministers who are not educated what about then is the equality being done?
The government says that free education for children of those who are below poverty line families when they are providing them the minimum education then why not our ministers should have minimum education level.

For development of a country, education is an important aspect. Politicians are elected by the the citizens and they are responsible to govern the country. They need to take decisions for the welfare of the country. A low qualified politician won't be able to handle diplomatic relations with other countries. A wrong step taken by a political leader can cost heavily. Education helps in decision making, and without education it can be difficult for politicians to solve the problems of society.

Ruling a country is the most important job one can perform as a citizen. If any other job in this country requires educational qualification, then person ruling a country is also required the same. But, in my opinion, to conduct an exam on certain subjects or setting a minimum qualification will not serve the purpose. The persons who are passionate about the dream to rule the country has to work hard to reach there, So it should certainly be the best people who have to get the job of directing this country. Right now those best people are the CIVIL service toppers. The personality trait to take responsibility and work hard are proven by these citizens. Let the civil service toppers be trained for governance. In fact, they already are. But under the current system, they act as puppets for the illiterate ministers! Why do we have to elect an irresponsible school drop out to direct our best students?Let The civil service toppers rule this country. Even to make it more efficient and transparent, the minimum qualification to contest for election should be a 5-year experienced collector and he has to compete for the place where he has served as a collector. Thereby we are already assured that they are trained in governance, they are getting practical experience and enough time to study the current situation of the country. They prove the efficiencies through the governance in the existing position. The voters also will get ample time and opportunity to assess their candidates and understand his capabilities of governance. Thereby we can provide a new system to filter the best candidates at the stage before ruling the country itself.

There is another blood sucking factor in the existing system; The political parties, whose primary objective is to oppose any decision taken by the other party (no matter how good a decision is for the country). In order to achieve the intended efficiency and independence in governance, all political parties should be dismissed from the country. Instead, there should be only two groups in the governance team. One group of the selected candidates who rules, another group of experts from each field who act as an advisory board to the ruling group. The moment we eliminate political parties from ruling us, we vote for the persons who has proven their efficiency in their governance to serve the country which is going to save India from many misfortunes that she has to suffer, just by the existence of political parties.

The main reason people disagree with the concept that an educational person will do better in ruling than an uneducated is based on the inefficiencies exist in our educational system. The existing system fails to generate responsible patriotic citizens and replaced values with money. We now follow the system created by the Brtish who has done it with a purpose of creating shame about India in every child\'s subconscious mind and create respect for the British. That is the main reason why the system now creates students whose ambition is to go abroad. Without patriotism and values, to expect people to work for the upliftment of their society and their country might not be achieved.

Once the society learns to respect people with values than people with money, then eventually people will lose the habit of doing anything for money which is the basic reason for the current situation in India, like any other developing country.

If we have to alter the constitution to save our country, It is high to do so As we have experienced that the existing system is proven to destroy India day by day.

Hi everyone.

My thought on this topic is that politician should have education qualification because of reason that if a person does not have proper knowledge how can he or she run a country if for example education minister doesn't even know how schools run so does this condition seems good if a sports minister doesn't even know that how cricket is played does it give any sense. In India, politicians only know how to disrespect the opposition party or how to gain votes.

If a person doesn't know how to speak in parliament do you think he can run the country? Only having skills always does not help. Sometimes having deep knowledge about your streams matters a lot. Now the condition is worse. Thank you.

Just think about a scenario, wherein a few people are queued up for a job interview for an Automobile Company's Engineer's post. Out of the lot, One is uneducated illiterate but has an experience of over 10 years of running his own Automobile garage, and the other one is an Automobile Engineer from One of the Top Engineering institutes in the country with a first class degree. Who will the company Hire? As per my Opinion, Although the illiterate person has an experience in the same field, but due to lack of education, his vision, capacity to learn more and the skills required to work in a corporate sector is lacking. He certainly will have to work much harder in the job to reach higher and also give best productivity to the company. Whereas the person who is the graduate in the field, has competence, Wide thinking ability, Higher IQ and skills to take decisions using his learnings. It becomes evident to hire him for the better future of the company. In the similar context, India is a huge Democracy, in order to make it much more progressive and competitive we need our decision makers to be learned, tech savvy, proactive and agiler in solving the issues being faced by us. It becomes evident that more learned and educated people in the system will make it easier for our new Generations. The vision will be better and younger. I seriously hope that Govt of India will listen to this and introduce mandatory Education levels in our democracy. Way Back in 1950, when our constitution was made, it was correct to exclude Education as the mandatory requirement to be an MP or an MLA, because at that time literacy rate was only 18%, whereas now we have Literacy rate more than 74%, then why can't we change now.

People in India are not thinking about upcoming generation by electinng un-educated people as political leaders. One person (for eg. IAS / IPS) he/she strives throught his/her childhood and become top most officer but when it comes to real life.

IAS / IPS have to salute political leaders (even who are not completed 12th Standard). Under graduation is basic mandatory course required as eligibility while nominating as political leaders to the state. If we want to stop this culture and to take out eligible candidates as leaders we have to sesitise all people and disseminate information upto villages regarding "effects on electing uneligible candidates as leaders".

Education is the vital tool for improving the economic conditions of our Nation. Just like we provide our children with good quality education so that they could become the future torchbearer of our society I believe the same applies to all politicians. It's not about getting so much degrees that matter. It's just a common sense every educated individual posses that should matter. Education teaches us what is right and wrong. But nowadays all politicians are not much educated. They follow corrupt policies without even having the audacity to forecast its results. Politicians should have the minimum ideology to understand the keen needs and requirements of the society and it will definitely be giving a positive result in the long run.

Hello everyone.

I am Ankitpal, now, I am going to discuss educational qualifications for politicians. In my opinion, As we all know our politicians are the pillar of our country but there are many ministers who are illeterate. If they are illeterate so how they will become devoted and serve our country. In my opinion, educational qualifications should be compulsory for every politician. Because if our politicians well educated so they can improve our development. But there are many ministers those are efficient for politics despite of illeterate.
