Jainism ke anusar, 8 varsh ki aayu mein kisi bachche ka mantri (ya kisi bhi prakar ka rajkiya pad) par niyukt hona shreshth ya uchit nahi mana jata. Jain dharm mein jeevan ke prarambhik varshon ko shiksha, sadachar, ahimsa aur dharmik mulyon ki sikh lene ke liye mahatvapurn mana gaya hai. Bachpan mein vyakti ka mool uddeshya dharm, vinay, aur sadharan jeevan vyatit karna hota hai, na ki rajneeti ya prashasan mein bhag lena.

Jain dharm ke anusar, kisi bhi pad ya jimmedari ko sambhalne ke liye vyakti ko poorn aayu, gyaan, vivek aur anubhav hona chahiye. Isliye, 8 saal ki aayu mein mantri banna Jain dharm ki maryada ke anukul nahi hai.

Yadi aap Jain dharm ke itihaas ya any prashna puchna chahte hain, kripya pooch sakte hain.
