Question

no education qualifications required for contesting the election explain

Answer 1

After so many long hours of perplexed gap, today I am willing to write my views on this political debate that “should there be minimum educational qualifications needed for politicians in our country (India)?”

Many of us will be agree that Yes, our political person should be educated and have some necessary etiquette too. But making education mandatory is equally contradictory though we all know that a good leader needs to have proper commitment and confidence with which he/she can delegate the listeners. A leader has to be elected by his good communication skill and not by his degrees. Being literate is a highly desirable trait, but it can’t be mandatory as well. Purposely, we can also not belittle this statement that “An impartial education in politics would increase participation in elections with electors voting armed with a knowledge and understanding of party politics rather than a reliance on spin and media prejudices," as coined by John Rimmer, president of the National Association of Schoolmasters/Union of Women Teachers.
