Answer 2

Option (a) is the correct answer. "Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A".

• A: There is no education qualification for candidates for being MP or MLA.
• R: The relevant qualification for the candidate is the ability to understand people's concerns, and problems and represent people's interests.

• Education qualification refers to a degree, diploma, or any other certificate that an individual acquires, which proves that the individual has completed the respective course.
• MPs: They are members of the parliament.
• MLAs: Members of the legislative assembly are the direct representative of the people.
• In India, To become an MP or MLA, no education qualification is required as it goes against the idea of democracy. Any Indian citizen who has attained a certain age and is sound-minded and has not committed any severe crime has the right to contest for the election.
• This idea was brought because during and even after the independence the education level in India was much lower which discourages people to contest for the election, therefore, education qualification was not made mandatory. It was also put forward that you don't need an education qualification to understand people's problems and to represent them.
