Educational qualification for Politicians
For any growing nation education is most important aspect in all terms may it be human development or mechanical development , although education comes after hunger but know after 65 years of independence , hunger is not our major problem but education is . Thus now our politicians need to be qualified and educated. So this leads to a very common discussion that Weather Educational Qualifications for politicians are necessary or not?
Politician should be people with high education because many leadership attributes are gained through education. Leaders with no education can not cope up with the change hence it hinders country development. Education is necessary for a leader, for the country’s bright future and prosperity. As now a days it is the basic need of a person, but yes, it should not be fixed till a certain level. A leader should be matured, experienced, kind, educated, and should understand peoples feelings, thinking, vision etc. And that all comes from education it self and our moral life. So friends that’s all I think ! I hope you all will like your small friend thinking, In my view politicians needed Higher education, because they are the persons rule the society. Unfortunately the highly educating peoples like IAS Officers working under the uneducated persons and also there is no rule for politician’s education. First of all we are changing the ours.
Some high educated politicians are doing the schemes. Finally we conclude that Only Qualification insufficient for the politicians and also having good leader ship qualities and genuine persons are required. What I fell is knowledge is more necessary than a written degree, anyone in today’s world can get a degree just by paying some amount!
I totally have to disagree that education makes men for see things and value things better. Talk about Bill Gates, Henry Ford, Albert Einstein and many more throughout history. They have no educational qualifications that they can speak of and yet are great leaders, in fact they are among the most powerful motivation of the world.
So there by I conclude that knowledge should be trusted rather than a show off degree!
Government is introducing many policies to ruin illiteracy from our country. If the leader is illiterate, there is no use to make All citizens literate. A corruption free nation will come only from a well educated leader.

A new career trend has emerged in the recent past…..
FAILED IN EXAMS——–>BECOME A POLITICIAN
Not always true for all but very often its the case,student from political background….are brought up in such a environment that there is a sense that they have to take the “CHAIR”
NEED OF CHANGE….
Educational qualification should be made mandatory,because finally its us who suffer ,because they have to take financial decision that is very crucial for countries economical growth…
every where there is a ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA lets make it for our respected politicians.
Education is the platform which indirectly tells about the person.
For what we select leaders????
They are their to make policies, understand the need of their people, their visions, their requirements, and all that comes from education.
in this era of technology, we want that our country must have schemes that guarantee to success.
how can we expect that an illiterate person can make good plans and have vision for the development of a country.
it all come from education, so education is a must.
if they themselves are not educated and don’t know about its value, they don’t make people to be educated.
Its not only in terms of degree only besides education qualifications, he mus have leadership and he must be a kind person who could understand the needs of their people.
Moreover, a leader is a inspiration, if he himself is not educated, how can he inspire those people who consider him as their leader, their innovator.

COMMENT .. POLITICIAN SHOULD BE EDUCATED BECAUSE IN PRESENT CENTURY SO THAT WE UNDERSTAND THE YOUTH ND CRICICAL CONDITION ON INDIA BUT ONE MORE THING THAT POLITICIAN CONTAIN THE LEADERSHIP QUALITY WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT . IF POLITICIAN IS EDUCATED THEN IT WILL PAYHEED ON EDUCATION AND IT CAN UNDERSTAND THE INDIAN EDUCATION VERY WELL .
Politicians should be educated because they have to govern the country .politicians with no education can never cope up with the change hence it hinders country.They should be matured, experienced, kind, educated, and should understand peoples as the whole nation depends on them. our country will rise only when the foundation is right. they should be good leaders to serve our country beneficially.
In india there are a large no of politicans who didnt pass even 5 class though they are able to work well but they must have some qualification because they represent the peoples who may have highly educated.In this case how will they communicate to these people.they will not be able to get good ideas from these people which will help in developing the nation.
at least there should be a minimum qualification for the politicians so that they have enough knowledge to work and they can easily communicate with the people.If a politician is well qualified than he will understand all the plus and negative points.politicans who are not qualified can be easily misguided which will result in degaradation of our nation such politicans can be manipulated easily .Though they have good intension but due to less qualification they may not be able to work well.
a qualified politican has lots of advantages over unqualified people.In india the no of illeterate people is very high how an unqualified politican can help to increase this bar………..zz
As far as higher education concerned for politicians it is very necessary part because every member related to politicians having responsibility of all thing our India and also any other countries . To make peacefulness our country and all social problem many of the problem related to country. so it is a very big problem so the member related to politicians have to be very knowledgeable person so as my views that person is having higher education because in that person number of educated person working under of them .some point good leadership ,excellent decision maker etc.
Politician should be education. because they lead our country if they do not have knowleage they they can not drive our country effeciently . they should have knowlage about other country progreace , and which field we should need more and more work so that we can reach our country top in the World .
Politician should have know all thing so they can make better panicement of crimimal so that we can decrease and stop crime . And they can make good roll . we can not say that un-educatioon can drive country well , but eduction person can drive better then .
HELLO EVERYONE….!!!!
Education is the key to success…. we all know that… but here…. its like…. everyone knows everything…. but actually don’t want to believe…. Truly said by MAHATMA GANDHI…. ” AN EYE FOR AN EYE MAKES THE WHOLE WORLD BLIND….” we all know that education is very important… in each n every field as it provides us with good environment, etiquette, morals belief….. n most importantly it helps us to be a HUMAN BEING…. EDUCATION QUALIFICATION for politicians should be must as they are the “Landlords” of our nation… they accordingly used to work for our betterment… if they’ll only will be illiterate then how could we do the same…. Educated people can deal with any of the problem intelligently…. as they are aware about the pros n cons of it.
Thank You for reading….!!!!
hello! As we being a student education plays one of the important role to reach to our success. So i would like to share my views regarding EDUCATIONAL qualification for politicians . Education is important but it should not be limited to just get a degree.
To reach to a peak position, one have to work hard,study and gain knowledge so politician should be educated to cope up with country’s problem.
But the knowlege of kindness, goodwil and working for the people,by the people and of the people is not taught by any educational degree. So at this point education limits
So i would conclude my point that a politician who is satisfactory educated with belief of people’s services can be the best leader for the country.
Role of politicians is not a small role its plays a vital role because politicians is the one who represent the culture of the country .
So in my opinion there must be an educational qualification background for politicians as well. To become the leader and to guide the country is not easy .
As we know educated person is not greedy in nature , for him development of the country is priority and if the politician is uneducated he’ll directly run behind the money without seeing its negative and positive aspects
Politicians not only rule a country and millions of highly educated personalities but also represents the country outside it, so their representation directly reflects the countries ruling policies and standard of a constitutional powers of country in international market,, which also effect the economy of the country.
So, it can be desasteroust to allocate such a huge and critical responsibility and post to a uneducated person.. So, education and a qualification criteria should b must for political candidates for being elected..
yes. definitely Politicians should be educated because our country is hand on our politicians. if politicians will not have basic knowledge about of any small thing so they can not rule our country. any field of criteria which can be related to education ,constitution . if they are educated they can easily define what is right or wrong. there are many law which is also generated by them so they must be well known about the constitution so all for that and make peaceful country they need education.
World is not run by rich and great people but its the quality and great thoughts of people which exist today also helps in development of world.India being an largest democratic country everyone has the right to stand for election.Since standing in election gives name,fame and increases the contact of an person.but before standing for such an dignified and respectful post that is of driving a country an individual should himself ask a question is he/she has a vision,motive and plans to create a better world.NO ONE THINKS SO! WHY??? because every0ne says polictics is a DUMP but educated people donot want to clean that dump and the minorities means less educated people comes into it and make it more dirty because of lack of knowlege they aim to make money mostly for there better tomorrow without thinking that they are educating the same criteria to there younger one who are going to be a future of world tomorrow.so educated politicans should be preffered.
” Yes , Politician should be educated “the reason is education widens the mind set of a person so same case is with politicians. education helps to be with modernization of world . and change verydays happening through out .
well…in my openion all politician must be qualified at some level …there should be some specific criteria to become a politician …..
because when illeterate people become a politician they start fullfilling their pocket and theyare not aware about many of the policies do not able to understand them properly there fore somewhere it also effect our econimical growth
so i thing a politician must be well qualified ..if not then upto a needed level ……ss
Yes i agree…my interpretation towards this topic is, there should be “Educational Qualification” for politicians because as we all know that literate person can deal with other people very well rather then an illiterate one…So i think there should be a criteria for politicians to get entry in the politics,parliament etc.
Personally i believe like in all the sectors there are some entrance exams..for politicians also there should be some exams which includes there perspectives towards the welfare of the country, the people around them, the leadership quality and the attitude towards life.It will give the exact image of a person that is going to be a politician.
So for this i completely agree that politicians should be well educated and they should have the criteria of educational qualification.It is a foremost requirement for our country that a politician must be educated.
Thank You.
yes,it should be necessary b’coz of the India is a very big country and we have more than enough kind of personalities which are residing in India and they are following different kind of traditions thats why the person who represents our country to international level so, you just think that is it illitrate ? or highly qualified person we need ? .
my perception is that how they will work together and understand the problem of our country and persons of India ??
Education is important for every person ,it develops the calliber and capacity of each individual. Many of our young politicians like sachin pilot,jyotraditya scindia are highly educated politicians and they are doing excel in their field . politicians are the people who decides the future of our country so its very important that they are capable enough to take right decision which they can gain from good education. in india even for a small peon job there is a certain education criteria then why not for the politicians who rule a country.
my opinion is that the politicians has well educated because if the politicians are not well educated so it does not takes the right decision because of lack of knowledge , and without qualifications they do not have gain knowledge and education qualification is plays an important role in politicians life so they can easily understands their responsibilities and takes the right position that they actually deserves. if the politician has well educated so it easily plays the leadership role . so it is important a politician have a good education qualification.
I personally feel politicians should be well educated because country’s future and growth is totally depended on these people. To make a developing country developed, this load is on the shoulders of these people.
If a Financial Minister is not educated how he ll give the financial plan. If a education minister is not educated then how he can make people educate.
Since other than education, positivity, productivity and dedication is also responsible for the better growth of the nation. Developing country like India always aspiring for a educated, experience and a positive leader for theirselves. Thank You!!!…
there must be an educational qualification for politicians as well. To become the leader of the nation and guide the country is not easy . For this we need quiet good and well educated person who could guide us and can lead us as well as nation to the right place and position that it actually desreves.
Education is must!!
As we look today’s scenario, India though is developing faster, but it is also lagging behind in some areas which can not be overlooked. Politicians are people who drive this country. It isn’t necessary that each and every person should be educated but basic understanding of things, demands, needs and most important “ETHICS” should be the prior straits in every politician.
A person who is educated can understand these necessary things better. An educated person is smart, intelligent, knows difference between right and wrong.
Our politicians also represent India on international front, thus educational qualification should be must.
According to me..i think education is very impotent in every line. so why not in politicians. most of the politicians are not in so educated. i think in line , there should also be compulsory in politic line . 60 % politicians are not so educated. in our country there is very need for the educated politicians. like A.p.J. Abdul Kalam. he is such a nice person and he also so educated.
so we can say that there is very important educated politicians in our country , to improve our country .
i think the politicians should be educated.because the education provide the good management skill and made up for taking the self decision making capabilities.we all are know very well the IAS officer working under the politicians but they can’t provide the knowledgeable thoughts because that types of thought build our self decision power and knowledge provide that all things that’s why the good education should be allowed for the politicians.
Of course to be educated in any field plays a very crucial role. & when its comes to one who has responsibilities of the whole country then the first and foremost requirement is to be educated. so, as per as my views i feel it is very important to be a politician to be educated and along with that h/she must have leadership quality to put his/her views in sharp way and work for the betterment of our country !!!
In the present scenerio of globalisation politicians have to be well educated..so that they can well understand the happenings and can control the youth in a better way!!
i think Politicians should be well educated because they are person who govern the country n if they are not educates well then the country should have to face big loss…..
it is not necessary that each n every leader is highly educated but an individual focus towards the development and make the country corruption free is more important rather than a giant degree to show off
educations is must for any politician
but before than experience is must
a leader should not be a person who only know about the society, and he/she should not be a person who have only know how the world behave
we need politicians who have experience as well as knowledge about the field he should be dedicated to the field and if we able to find one person then it will be eternal reward for the society
