Immaterial diplomas

Bharat

Sir — This refers to the editorial, “Positive but imperfect” (December 12). There is no evidence to prove that those with formal education qualifications automatically improve governance at any level. look around you: The demon of vote-bank politics was unleashed by politicians with formal education. Having a high school diploma has nothing to do with political vision or administrative abilities. The biggest corruption scams have been perpetrated by educated politicians, administrators, businesspersons, and even judges.
