In all fields, besides politics and business, there should be a retirement age. But in case of politics experience matters. Because with the increment in age you are going to gain experience and with the help of experience you could do better than any other young blood experience is like an entropy which always increases with time. So, if experience has no age to be gained then I must say there should be no retirement age for politician.

Hi guys.

My thought is that politicians should have a particular age when they would go out of seat, I know experience matters in this but the politicians need to give rise to younger ones in some places like Nigeria you can see a president still on seat at the age of 60 which is very wrong.

At a very old age like that all he can think of is how to embezzle money from the country income but if younger generations stand for president and eventually becomes a president he would have ideas on how to help the county at his young age I think the retirement age for president should be 60-70 years.

According to me like in other sectors there should also be the retirement age in politics because we should also give chance to the youngsters as they are the future of the country and able to make good policies according to its new thinking.

In country like India where there are huge %of youngsters there should be a good young politicians who can easily understand the problem of the youth. So according to me there should be the retirement age for politicians.

According to me in India the politicians time period should be for maximum 8-10 years. Because when they have joined politics his mind thought more than 90% in developing the country. After this period his mind thought just on earning money.

So this is depends upon the mental ability of person. If they do best work for the country then I think there is no need to retired a person. Otherwise if does not work properly then also no need to retired there is need to terminate.

I think age play a very important role in our life. But some political leader play a role in very long time which is very dangerous to country because they don't able to speak someone. So I think age of retirement of politician is 55 years.

There should be a determined retirement age for politicians. As it gives the young blood chance to prove themselves by running nation. We know every job has a retirement age. Every coin has a two sides. Elder people have ample of experience. They make the younger generation known to the measures and principles of politics.

So I advice the constitution that there should be a age of retirement. But there should be some post in the government "the elderly advisory council".

Hello,

Well, I agree with most of you who says that retirement is necessary for politicians. To support my points I would say that from the 1st term or 2nd term of joining polities he could do everything needed either for developing purpose or getting money for personal gains and then after that the remaining years will be because of the wealth, respect and reputation which would help him to stay in polities that will have nothing to do with the country's development. So, its better to have a retirement age for a politicians.

Hello everyone,

According to my point of view, politicians must have a retirement age so that the youth will fetch an opportunity to exhibit their talents of making right choices for the development of our country. There are only few politicians who think and work for the improvement of our nation while others are corrupted. May be the youth can make a difference in improving the present condition of our nation. Of course they do need advice from experienced people.

Hi friends according to my perceptions I think most of you are support the retirement of politicization agree and know all the good ideas my aim is not to put anyone in confusion according to me teeth is no need for retirement for politicians. There is more need for experience leaders. However for develop the country there is more need of good experience leader. Let a example of Narendra Modi, he is a powerful leader. He do many type of work in comparison to new generation leaders.

Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I think politician retirement age should be 60 years because many of politicians age above 65 years and should give the chance to youngsters as they have many ideas, ability to do work hard and it is good for our country for development.
