Umesh a class XI student asks:
i m student in 11 th class and i want to enter indian polatics so i just want to ask that is thier any compulsary educational qualifications..? And what should be the way i approach to it.
Here are some suggestions:
There are no qualifications for entering politics (that is both a wonderful and dangerous thing simultaneously!). My suggestions:
a) pick the party you want to affiliate with, and join the youth group of that party,
b) get involved in student union if there is one, and or any other activities that require coordination,
c) read a LOT about leaders of all types (Churchill, Gandhi, Nehru, Hitler, Stalin, etc.), e) read A LOT about economics and history. (and watch documentaries as well–many are there on Fox History and youtube).
d) read the book 48 Laws of Power.
e) Pick things that you want to improve in your school, home or community, and see if you can get them to be improved through whatever means you have available. You can organize events or rallies or take part in them.
f) When you go to college, join the student union
g) Consider majoring in economics or political science
h) Meet with as many politicians you can and learn from them. Find out who the local ones are. If you have any connections through family/friends, see if you can meet them. Some discussions with politicians will open your mind considerably.
