Solved, the problem was with readonly attribute, when u put readonly with required together on kendo ui datepicker, kendo ui validator doesn't validate it on reqiured rule, if u still want prevent user from entering wrong data in datepicker u should use custom validation rule here is an example http://jsbin.com/eleyeh/4/edit

I see that you have added the required attribute manually, all you need to do now is to initialize the Kendo validator over your form which contains the datepicker. Check here.

You should add [Required] to POAStartDate property of your model.
