Absolutely no!!!
We’re at a time when relevance of formal education is at its all time low, even
though parents want to believe otherwise. We have millions and millions of
individuals in this country self-learning and gaining education informally
through internet, parents and their own experiences. Additionally, internet is
playing a major role in offering higher education to the high-school graduates
which is yet to be identified as ‘formal qualification’.
So no, there
shouldn’t be any minimum qualification to become the Prime Minister of India. One
of these days, we need to understand that there are two types of Education,
formal and informal one—and we need to stop prioritizing the former one. And
also, there is a big difference between education and intelligence.
Names like Henry
Ford, William Shakespeare, Abraham Lincoln, Kapil Dev, Aamir Khan didn’t
receive as much of formal education. They were/are mostly self-learners. Had
there been education requirements in their respective fields, they would have
never risen to the top.
Prime Minister
of India (or any country for that matter) needs to be diplomatic in nature, a
motivated person, empathetic, problem-solver and a good communicator who can
bring people together. These are qualities that are not acquired by formal education.
