The glaring issues of minorities, particularly Muslims, ranging from the identity crisis of post-partition and post- independent India to the present age of groping for a foothold in the information revolutionized and digitalized lopsided growth -in the post-liberalization, globalization of economic reforms of 1991- has only one antidote i.e. education. The present paper tries to explore the impact of education on the political behaviour of the Muslims of Uttar Pradesh and analyses its impact on empowerment of the community as a whole to control and redirect the Indian political system for allocation of resources for the welfare of the community. The samples drawn from the different districts of Uttar Pradesh reveal that such a wholesome impact of education on Political Behaviour, though, still may be a far cry but the past twenty years of Babri-Masque demolition generated hysteria and hostile anti- Muslim climate has pushed the cocoon out of their world of alienation.
