"25 school students and a similar number of college students from the each district of state will participate in this Panchayat," he informed.
Swami Vivekananda's birth anniversary is also observed as National Youth Day.
Chouhan has held several such panchayats during his 11-year tenure as Chief Minister to hold dialogue with various social groups including farmers, the physically challenged, domestic helps (maids), barbers and women.
Earlier the Vidhyarthi Panchayat was going to be held on November 26, Students were not able to attend the Panchayat because of examinations. Students urged the Chief Minister to postpone the date and now the meeting is happening on January 12. Last November, the CM has said that panchayat related to technical and medical students may be held separately. Similarly, the Chief Minister's office is planning a separate panchayat for Schedule Caste and Schedule Tribe students.
