Question

I want one minute speech on " Political interference in Education system".

Answer 1

Friends, 

    Political Interferences in Education System is not advisable or desirable.
This is what everyone says and wants.  But perhaps it never happens. The political activity starts in schools, colleges and universities. Elections (and strikes sometimes) in educational institutions are a foundation for education in politics and leadership. Somehow politics stay alive in the air in universities, especially in the capitals of states and the country too.

   It is important that students learn knowledge from the books, classes, practicals, activities and interpersonal interactions. They should become skilled enough to secure competent jobs useful the betterment of the society. The should be capable of taking care of their families too.

   Politics could disturb the concentration and schedules of the studies of the students. Some weak and poor students could get affected by the political disturbances. The involvement of students in political system could be seen as training into politics. However, from the education point of view, it is clearly seen as interference, if that disturbs the careers and future of students. 

   As boys and girls become majors at 18 years and become valuable voters, the political system tries to woo them and attract them. The boys and girls are very clever these days. They can decide what is good and what is not, in today's world. When some issue is for the good of students and society, I am sure they all support the agitations and movements.

   Further in the administration of educational institutes should not be tampered with by the political powers. That would demotivate good administrators and capable educators. Already, the reservation policies and similar schemes are into educational system. They are for upliftment of the society. There are some valid arguments opposing that policy too.

   In movies we see a lot of bad examples of political influence and corruption on education. Students, educators and educationalists feel threatened by politicians. The involvement of the political powers or government powers in a non-official way, if it is for good, then it is alright. When it troubles them, they detest it.

    Political interference could be that incapable persons are appointed at powerful and influential positions or undeserved favours are showered upon certain persons. Whatever the case is, it is preferable to keep political interferences in educational institutes at minimum. This is for the good of everyone.
