  1. Employees me ens, have to keep their health,and wealth
    O,K, I Menes workable condition but politician,....
    have to keep their brain only, but sciences says the condition
    of Bran will be only up to 60 only,
    that's why we are suffering,
  2. I think the reason why there is no retirement age for politicians, has pretty much to do with the nature of the job they do, u cannot argue that comparing to an employee's job, coz he/ she does more of physical jobs, but with all major politicians, these days, they (are supposed to) use the experience, make decisions for people’s welfare and delegate actual work to people under them. When they get higher up in the ladder its more to controlling the party, handling various kinds of people and issues than doing any physical work at all.
    They can choose to be out of positions and just stay in the party to serve people, but sadly only with positions, come power and control, no one here is goin to listen to a respectable and good leader if he has something to say.

    The minimum age to contest in loksabha / assembly elections is 25, but how many of us in this age do think of politics as our careers, many think of tryinga hand at politics when they have made enough fame or money in their fields….so till new and young people join active politics and they actually get into positions, I guess we will hav only 60+ people around , on the same lines check this out - http://www.lokparitran.org/ , might have seen this already
  3. hands and legs do get tired but mouth does not. employees labour with hands and legs but politicians do lipservice only. do you understand now why there is retirement age for employees andnot for politicians?
  4. There should be specific age limits in the law. but the law makers have not decided it as yet.
