CM as student

Kokila Pal said chief minister Mohan Yadav studied at Government Jiwajiganj School, Ujjain, from Class 9 to 12 from 1979 and 1981. She taught physics and Yadav was a science student.

Although he studied physics, he was more interested in biology. Since biology lab was located near physics lab, he often visited it.
